/text/shared/00/00000200.xhp Graphics Export Options Defines graphics export options.

When you export graphical elements to a file, you can select the file type. For most supported file types a dialog opens where you can setup export options. The following file types do not show an options dialog: RAS, SVG, TIFF, XPM. The other file types show options dialogs where you can set the width and height of the exported image. Depending on the file type, you can specify some more options. Press Shift+F1 and hover over the control to see an extended help text. Common controls Specifies the measurement units. Width Specifies the width. Height Specifies the height. Resolution controls Resolution Enter the image resolution. Select the measurement units from the list box. More options JPEG controls For JPEG files you can set the color depth and the quality. Select the color depth from 8 bit grayscale or 24 bit true color. Sets the compression for the export. A high compression means a smaller, but slower to load image. Sets the quality for the export. Choose from a low quality with minimal file size, up to a high quality and big file size BMP controls For BMP files you can set the compression and the RLE encoding. Applies RLE (Run Length Encoding) to the BMP graphics. PBM PGM PPM controls For PBM, PGM, and PPM files you can set the encoding. Exports the file in binary format. The resulting file is smaller than a text file. Exports the file in ASCII text format. The resulting file is larger than a binary file. PNG controls For PNG files you can set the compression and the interlaced mode. Specifies whether the graphic is to be saved in interlaced mode. GIF controls For GIF files you can set the transparency and the interlaced mode. Specifies whether to save the background of the picture as transparent. Only objects will be visible in the GIF image. Use the Color Replacer to set the transparent color in the picture. EPS controls For EPS files you can set the preview, the color format, the compression, and the version. You must print an EPS file with a PostScript printer. Other printers will only print the embedded preview. Specifies whether a preview image is exported in the TIFF format together with the actual PostScript file. Specifies whether a monochrome preview graphic in EPSI format is exported together with the PostScript file. This format only contains printable characters from the 7-bit ASCII code. Compression is not available at this level. Select the Level 1 option if your PostScript printer does not offer the capabilities of Level 2. Select the Level 2 option if your output device supports colored bitmaps, palette graphics and compressed graphics. Exports the file in color. Exports the file in grayscale tones. LZW compression is the compression of a file into a smaller file using a table-based lookup algorithm. Specifies that you do not wish to use compression.
