Saving Files

saving it. The file can be opened again within Viewer or it can be
used in other applications. There are several methods for saving
files.
This first consideration should be how the document or image will be
used. Documents (multi-page files) can only be saved in one of two
formats: ALA or DCX. Images (single page files) have more
options: ALA, DCX, TIF, BMP, PCX, or JPG. If the file will be
placed in another application, consideration should be made as to
what file formats are supported by that application. TIF is one of the
most widely used formats if it is unknown what a particular applica-

Type the file name in the File Name box.
Select the OK pushbutton.
