Saving your work
It is a good habit to save your work periodically to ensure that you don’t have to redo
everything when unexpected events happen. Keep in mind that saving a project in a *.TPX
(*.UPX for image files) format means that you will be able to edit the individual objects when
you reopen the file.
Saving a photo or project:
1 On the Menu Command bar, select Share:
Save.
2 In the Options panel, enter a saving
location and file name.
3 Select a File type on the drop-down menu.
4 Click Save.
Notes:
•
Data type describes how much color
information is saved with the image.
The more color information included in
the file, the larger the file tends to be.
The highest color data type is True
Color. Indexed-256 and Grayscale
each contains up to a maximum of 256
distinct colors and are generally quite
small. (48-bit True Color and 16-bit
Grayscale are supported in TIF
format.)
•
Possible File types for saving are:
BMP and TIF can keep the highest
level of quality; JPEG is ideal for
photos to be used on the Web or sent
via e-mail because the file size can be
significantly reduced down to the
minimum relative to your acceptable
quality; UPX for saving photos with
unmerged, free-floating objects. These
objects can be used again when the
file is reopened in Photo Express.
