Using the Save As and Duplicate features, you can convert items to different file formats that other programs may need.
For example, you can use Save As to convert a JPEG item to a Windows Bitmap (.bmp) file for the Windows Paint program — or use Duplicate as PDF to convert a Word (.doc) file to a PDF item.
Both Save As and Duplicate create a new version of the file, without affecting the original.
You can save items to these file formats:
Graphic Interchange Format (.gif)
JPEG (.jpg)
PC Paintbrush (.pcx)
PCX Multi-page (.dcx)
Portable Document Format (.pdf) Image-only or Searchable.
Portable Network Graphics (.png)
Tagged Image File Format (.tif)
Windows Bitmap (.bmp)
In PaperPort Professional, you can save images also in PDF-MRC Image (*.pdf) and PDF-MRC Searchable Image (.pdf)
Note
Be aware that when you save and convert an image item to a different format, the new format might not support all the characteristics of the source item.
For example, when you save a color PDF file as a TIFF Group 4 file, the item changes to a black-and-white image — or, when you save a file with text annotations as a PDF file, the PDF annotations might have different font, color, and point size attributes.
