General Operation

2-15

The Analysis option exports the image data unmodified by any viewing adjustments
you may have made (such as Transform or Zoom). If you select this option, the other
controls in the dialog box will become inactive.

Publishing Export

If you select the Publishing export option, the exported TIFF image will look like the
image as it is currently displayed on the computer screen.

You can specify a resolution for the exported image by selecting 72 dpi (typical
computer screen resolution), 150 dpi or 300 dpi (standard printing resolutions), Same
as scan, or any resolution you specify (up to the resolution of the scan).

If you have log transformed the image, you can specify a Linear transform, or
preserve the Current view.

If your image has a pixel depth of 16 bits, you can compress it to 8 bit data for export
to TIFF by selecting the 8 bit option.

Note:

Note:TIFF images are exported from the Multi-channel Viewer in 24 bit RGB
mode to preserve the colors displayed in the viewer.

Finally, if you are only displaying part of the image due to magnification or
repositioning, you can preserve the Current view or export the Entire image.

Exporting the Image

The size of the pixels in the image and the file size of the image are listed at the
bottom of the dialog. When you are ready to export, click the Export button.

A Save In dialog box will open. The default file name will have a .tif extension, and
the file type will indicate that this is a TIFF image. You can change the file name or
select a different directory to save in.

2.3.d Closing files

To unload a single image from a window or subwindow, select the window or
subwindow, then select File > Unload. If the image is in a subwindow, the image will
close but the larger window will remain open; if the image is in its own window, the
entire window will close. If the file has changed since it was last saved, you will be
prompted to save the changes before closing. The File > Unload option is inactivated
