Importing and Exporting

You can convert the file format of image data and save
files between frame memory storage and a removable
drive.
The supported conversion formats when importing/
exporting are given below.
• TIF (TIFF files, “.tif” file name extension)
• BMP (Bitmap files, “.bmp” file name extension)
• TGA (Targa files, “.tga” file name extension)
• PNG (PNG files, “.png” file name extension)

You can also import files between the frame memory
storage and a computer using the file manager.

For details, see “File Manager” (page 536).

Importing

Importing converts the format of files on a removable
drive, and save the files in frame memory storage.
When multiple files are selected having a
“character_string + number” (or character_string + # +
number) name format, files with the same
“character_string” portion are imported as a frame
memory clip where “character_string” is the clip file
name.
Example: Importing Targa files

• File names after importing can have a maximum of 32

characters. The 33rd and subsequent characters, if
present, are deleted.

• The files that can be imported for each format are given

below.
- TIFF files (TIF): RGB uncompressed
- Bitmap files (BMP): 24-bit Windows format
