EPS<br />

The PostScript file format saves models as<br />

encapsulated postscript file (EPS). EPS files are<br />

ASCII text files containing the scaleable PostScript<br />

representation of a <strong>Chem3D</strong> picture. You can open<br />

EPS files using other applications such as<br />

PageMaker. You can transfer EPS files among<br />

platforms, including Macintosh, Windows, and<br />

UNIX.<br />

TIF<br />

The Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) contains<br />

binary data describing a bitmap image of the model.<br />

TIFF is a high resolution format commonly used<br />

for saving graphics for cross-platform importing<br />

into desktop publishing applications. TIFF images<br />

can be saved using a variety of resolution, color, and<br />

compression options. As TIFF images can get large,<br />

choosing appropriate options is important.<br />

When you save a file as .TIF, an option button<br />

appears in the Save As dialog box.<br />

RGB Indexed.<br />

CMYK Contiguous.<br />

Stores colors nonsequentially.<br />

For example:<br />

CMYKCMYK. The<br />

PackBits compression type<br />

provides no compression<br />

for this type of file.<br />

NOTE: If objects in your document are black and white<br />

they are saved as black and white regardless of which Color<br />

options you set. If you import drawings from other<br />

applications and want them to print Black and White you<br />

must set the Color option to Monochrome.<br />

To specify the save options:<br />

1. Click Options:<br />

The TIFF Options dialog box appears.<br />

4. Choose a compression option:<br />

If you want to …<br />

Then choose …<br />

2. Choose a resolution. The size of the file<br />

increases as the square of the resolution.<br />

3. Choose a color option.<br />

If you want to … Then choose …<br />

reduce file size by<br />

encoding repeating bytes<br />

of information as output.<br />

For example, for a line of<br />

color information such as:<br />

CCCCCMMMMMYYYY<br />

YKKKKK, the<br />

compression yields a<br />

smaller file by representing<br />

the information as<br />

C5M5Y5K5.<br />

PackBits.<br />

force objects to black<br />

and white.<br />
