For information about importing images with a TWAIN scanner, see "Using TWAINcompatible<br />

scanners" on page 447.<br />

Exporting images<br />

When you export an image from a <strong>Canvas</strong> document, <strong>Canvas</strong> creates a file on disk from a single<br />

selected paint object. Using Export is similar to using Save As, except that you must select a paint<br />

object before you choose Export.<br />

To export an image:<br />

1. Select the paint object or image to export.<br />

Images in edit mode can't be exported. Press Esc to exit edit mode.<br />

2. Choose Image | Export, and select a file format.<br />

3. In the Export Image dialog box, type a file name, select a location for the exported file, and<br />

then click Save.<br />

If the image mode of the selected paint object is not supported by the chosen format, the<br />

Render Image dialog box appears. In the dialog box, select an image format supported by the<br />

file format. If an image mode is not available in the Mode menu, the selected file format does<br />

not support that mode (see "Rendering objects and images" on page 430 for more<br />

information).<br />

Viewing EXIF information<br />

EXIF (Exchangeable Image File) is a format that stores information in digital images. Almost all new<br />

digital cameras use EXIF to store information on the image such as shutter speed, exposure<br />

compensation, F number, what metering system was used, if a flash was used, ISO number, date<br />

and time the image was taken, white balance, auxiliary lenses that were used, and resolution.<br />

<strong>Canvas</strong> provides quick and easy access to most of the information that is attached to these images.<br />
