Background output settings

You can set the following options in the Background set of the Output Settings dialog box:

View Document As

Select Image if you want the web page to display an image or a solid color as a background behind

the current image. Select Background if you want the web page to display the optimized image as a tiled background.

Background Image

Enter the location of an image file, or click Choose and select an image. The file you specify will be

tiled behind the optimized image on the web page.

Color

Click the Color box, and select a background color using the color picker, or select an option from the pop-up menu.

Saving Files output settings

You set the following options in the Saving Files

set of the Output Settings dialog box:

File Naming

Choose elements from the pop-up menus or enter text into the boxes to be combined into the default

names for all files. Elements include document name, slice name, rollover state, trigger slice, file creation date, slice
number, punctuation, and file extension. Some options are relevant only if the file contains slices or rollover states.

The text boxes let you change the order and formatting of the filename parts (for example, letting you indicate rollover
state by an abbreviation instead of the full word).

Filename Compatibility

Select one or multiple options to make the filename compatible with Windows (permits

longer filenames), Mac OS, and UNIX.

Put Images In Folder

Specifies a folder name where optimized images are saved (available only with documents

containing multiple slices).

Copy Background Image When Saving

Preserves a background image that has been specified in the Background

preferences set.

Include title and copyright information with an image

You can add title and copyright information to a web page by entering information in the File Info dialog box. Title
information appears in the web browser’s title bar when the image is exported with an HTML file. Copyright
information is not displayed in a browser; however, it is added to the HTML file as a comment and to the image file as
metadata.
