TIFF export options

If your document contains multiple artboards, specify how to export the artboards before you click Save (Windows) or
Export (Mac OS) in the Export dialog box. To export each artboard as a separate TIFF file, select Use Artboards in the
Export dialog box. To export only a range of artboards, specify the range. Then click Save (Windows) or Export (Mac
OS) and specify the following options:

Color Model

Determines the color model of the exported file.

Resolution

Determines the resolution of the rasterized image. Higher resolution values result in better image quality

but larger file sizes.

Anti-Alias

Removes jagged edges in the artwork by supersampling it. Deselecting this option helps maintain the hard

edges of line art when it is rasterized.

LZW Compression

Applies LZW compression, a lossless compression method that does not discard detail from the

image. Select this option to produce a smaller file.

Byte Order

Determines the appropriate sequence of bytes for writing the image file, based on the platform you choose.

Illustrator and most recent applications can read files using the byte order for either platform. However, if you don’t
know what kind of program the file may be opened in, select the platform on which the file will be read.

Embed ICC Profiles

Creates a color-managed document.

File information and metadata

Metadata is a set of standardized information about a file, such as author name, resolution, color space, copyright, and
keywords applied to it.

File information found in the Document Info panel provides general file information and object characteristics, as well
as the number and names of graphic styles, custom colors, gradients, fonts, and placed art.
