Saving files in GIF format (Photoshop)

You can use the Save As command to save RGB, indexed-color, grayscale, or Bitmap-mode images directly in Compuserve GIF (known as GIF) format. The image is automatically converted to indexed-color mode. For more information about the GIF format, see GIF.

Note: You can also save an image as one or more GIF files using the Save for Web command (Photoshop) or the Save Optimized command (ImageReady). For more information on optimizing images, see Optimizing images.

To save a file in GIF format:

1. Choose File > Save As and choose CompuServe GIF from the Format menu.
2. For RGB images, the Indexed Color dialog box appears. Specify conversion options and click OK. For more information, see Conversion options for indexed-color images (Photoshop).
3. Select a row order for the GIF file, and click OK:
• Normal displays the image in a browser only when download is complete.
• Interlaced displays low-resolution versions of the image in a browser as the file downloads. Interlacing makes download time seem shorter, but it also increases file size.
