Export enables you to export gel images or analysis tables with the following
options:

select from .bmp, .png, .jpg, and .tif formats. The gel displays with any
lanes, bands, and annotations that appear on the screen. See Exporting
Gel Images for Publication on page 182 for more information.
 Export for Analysis — creates a .tif file that retains all gel image data.
Analysis data are not included. Use this option to analyze the image in
other software such as Quantity One
