Transparency is displayed in the Preview window by a rectangular lattice. You can toggle between the
Preview window and your Save As GIF options to the results you want. Enable the Interlaced check box if
your image will be displayed on a Web page.

Saving RGB TIF files
The TIF format facilitates exchange between applications and computer platforms. It is a widely supported
bitmap image format that lets you save RGB color profile information.
Saving Adobe Photoshop (PSD) files
Corel Painter can save files in Adobe Photoshop (PSD) format. For optimum compatibility, shapes and text
are rasterized, and masks are placed in channels.
When you save a file in PSD format, you can embed the RGB color profile, as you do when saving in TIF
format.
Saving Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) files
The encapsulated PostScript (EPS) files in Corel Painter conform to the Desktop Color Separation (DCS) 2.0
format (EPS-DCS 5 file format). Although Corel Painter saves files in EPS-DCS, it can’t read EPS-DCS. If you
plan to save an image in EPS-DCS, it’s a good idea to save it in another format first, so that you’ll have a
copy of it that you can reopen in Corel Painter.
When you save an image as an EPS-DCS file with Preview Options turned on, Corel Painter uses the loaded
International Color Consortium (ICC) profile to prepare the separation files. For more information, see
“Printing images” on page 855.
Although you can save your images as CMYK EPS separations, Corel Painter can’t open or edit CMYK files.
When you save a file in EPS-DCS, Corel Painter opens the EPS Save Options dialog box, with these options:
• Hex (ASCII) Picture Data provides another way of storing PostScript information. Some page design
programs require that this option be checked. The file sizes will be approximately twice as large when
saved with this option.
• Preview options — No Preview, Black and White Preview, and Color Preview — specify whether to save
preview data and in what format. The resulting preview file is a low-resolution (72-ppi) file.
If you have an older laser printer, you must use the black and white preview to print these files.
Although the preview or display is black and white, the color information remains intact.
Emailing documents
Corel Painter lets you email documents by using the default email application installed on your computer.
