Converting an Image From One Format to Another

You can open GIF or JPEG images in the Image editor and save them as bitmaps. Also, you can open a bitmap file and save it as a GIF or JPEG. Images you work with need not be part of a project for editing in the development environment (see stand-alone image editing).

To convert an image from one format to another

  1. Open the image in the Image editor.

  2. From the File menu, choose Save filename As.

  3. In the Save File As dialog box, in the File name box, type the file name and the extension that denotes the format you want.

  4. Click Save.
