About the save commands
- Save to save changes you've made to the current file. In Photoshop, the file is saved in the current format; in ImageReady, the Save command always saves to PSD format.
- Save As to save an image with a different location or filename. In Photoshop, the Save As command lets you save an image in a different format and with different options. In ImageReady, the Save As command always saves to PSD format.
- Export Original Document (ImageReady) to flatten the layers in a copy of the original image and save the copy in a variety of file formats. Some information (such as slices and optimization settings) is not preserved when an original image is saved to file formats other than Photoshop.
- Save a Version (Photoshop). This command is available for an image that is managed by a Version Cue Workspace. Versioning lets you save different versions of a file and comment on each. For more information, see Working with Adobe Version Cue managed projects.
- Save for Web (Photoshop), Save Optimized (ImageReady), and Save Optimized As (ImageReady) to save an optimized image for the Web. See Optimizing images and Saving optimized images.

If you're working with a file from an Adobe Version Cue project, the document title bar provides additional information about the status of the file. (See Working with Adobe Version Cue managed projects.)
Note: 16-bit-per-channel images can only be saved in the following formats using the Save As command: Photoshop, Photoshop PDF, Photoshop Raw, Large Document Format (PSB), Cineon, PNG, and TIFF. When using the Save for Web command with a 16-bit-per-channel image, Photoshop automatically converts the image from 16-bits per channel to 8-bits per channel.
