You can use the Save As command to save RGB, Indexed Color, Grayscale, or Bitmap mode images directly in

Note: GIF is only available when the image is 8 Bits/Channel (it only supports 8 Bit/Channel).

For RGB images, the Indexed Color dialog box appears. Specify conversion options and click

OK.

OK:

Normal

Save a file in Photoshop EPS format

Virtually all page-layout, word-processing, and graphics applications accept imported or placed EPS (Encapsulated
PostScript) files. To print EPS files, you should use a PostScript printer. Non-PostScript printers will print only the
screen-resolution preview.

1

Choose File

> Save As, and choose Photoshop EPS from the Format menu.

2

In the EPS Options dialog box, select the options you want, and click

OK:

Preview

Creates a low-resolution image to view in the destination application. Choose TIFF to share an EPS file

between Windows and Mac

OS systems. An 8-bit preview is in color and a 1-bit preview is in black and white with a

jagged appearance. An 8-bit preview creates a larger file size than a 1-bit preview. See also “

Encoding

Determines the way image data is delivered to a PostScript output device. Encoding options are described

below.

Include Halftone Screen and Include Transfer Function

Control print specifications for high-end commercial print

jobs. Consult your printer before selecting these options.

Transparent Whites

Displays white areas as transparent. This option is available only for images in Bitmap mode.

PostScript Color Management

Converts file data to the printer’s color space. Do not select this option if you plan to

place the image in another color-managed document.
