In the Output section of the Compressor Export Options dialog, choose whether to use
the current project settings by turning on the checkbox, or select the settings you want
to use.

Click Export.

The Compressor application opens, and your project is listed in the Batch window (the
main window of the Compressor workspace), along with the preset, destination, and
output filename.

If you want to change or add additional presets, select the project and choose the
preset you want in the Settings window or choose Target > Change Setting.

Choose a location for the exported file by choosing Target > Destination.

You can choose Source, Desktop, User’s Movies Folder, Cluster Storage, or Other and

export file is saved in the following location:

If you have previously saved and named the project, it is output to the save location, in
a folder named Motion Batch Export Files.
