19. Exporting Data
In this chapter you will learn how to export your work. This chapter discusses how to
export sequences, consensuses and contigs, and also how to export defined data such as
selected bases and subprojects.
Exporting data from Sequencher
Sequencher has a rich set of export formats. You can export sequence(s), contig(s) or
consensus sequence(s), subsets of your data, the Variance Table, the Summary Report and
even protein translations.
Sequencher offers you a number of options depending on the type of data you choose
to export. For each data type you can select a choice of format and the location for the
export. For some data types there are additional options. Sequencher may offer a default
for the export. Unless you deselect the option to use default names, Sequencher saves
the file(s) in the default name. The Export dialog box will default to the last location and
choice of format used.
All of the export commands are accessible from the File menu.
Exporting Sequences
To export a sequence or a number of sequences, click on the item(s) you want to export.
Go to the File menu and click on Export and choose Sequence(s)… from the submenu.
Sequencher provides a context sensitive dialog box for changing the export options. (See
Figure 19-1.)
