Photoshop export options
If
your document contains multiple artboards, specify how to export
the artboards before you click Save in the Export dialog box. To
export each artboard as a separate PSD file, select Use Artboards
in the Export dialog box. To export only a range of artboards, specify
the range. Then click Save and specify the following options:.
- Color Model
- Determines
the color model of the exported file. Exporting a CMYK document
as RGB, or vice versa, may cause unexpected changes in the appearance
of transparent areas, especially those that include blending modes. If
you change the color model, you must export the artwork as a flat
image (the Write Layers option isn’t available).
- Resolution
- Determines
the resolution of the exported file.
- Flat Image
- Merges
all layers and exports the Illustrator artwork as a rasterized image.
Choosing this option preserves the visual appearance of the artwork.
- Write Layers
- Exports groups, compound shapes, nested
layers, and slices as separate, editable Photoshop layers. Nested
layers that are more than five levels deep are merged into a single
Photoshop layer. Select Maximum Editability to export transparent
objects (that is, objects with an opacity mask, a constant opacity
less than 100%, or a blending mode other than Normal) as live, editable Photoshop
layers.
- Preserve Text Editability
- Exports
horizontal and vertical point type in layers (including nested layers
up to five levels deep) to editable Photoshop type. If doing so
compromises the appearance of the artwork, you can deselect this option
to rasterize the text instead.
- Maximum Editability
- Writes each top-level sublayer to
a separate Photoshop layer if doing so doesn’t compromise the appearance
of the artwork. Top-level layers become Photoshop layer sets. Transparent
objects remain editable transparent objects. Also creates a Photoshop
shape layer for each compound shape in a top‑level layer if doing
so doesn’t compromise the appearance of the artwork. To write compound
shapes with solid strokes, change the Join type to Round. Whether
or not you select this option, all layers over 5 levels deep are merged
into a single Photoshop layer.
Note: Illustrator cannot export
compound shapes that have graphic styles, dashed strokes, or brushes
applied to them. Such compound shapes become rasterized.
- Anti-Alias
- Removes jagged edges in the artwork by supersampling
it. Deselecting this option helps maintain the hard edges of line
art when it’s rasterized.
- Embed ICC Profiles
- Creates a color-managed document.
