Changing File Type

[58012]

Hi,

 

I have a TIFF file which I want to reformat to a JPEG.  I tried to do this under the Save As tag but the only option there is called Affinity Files!  How please can I do this as a JPEG?

Welcome to the Serif Affinity Forums, @58012.

’Save As…’ is only for saving to the native Affinity format. You need to use the ‘Export’ command.

Thank you for that.  You have probably guessed that I'm new to using this software.

Another thing I can't understand is that when I use Affinity on a Tiff image and then re-save is as a Tiff file it won't then open up the image in my Canon ZoomBrowser program.  Is this something that I can easily fix?

Click the More button and check the compression,  Photo defaults to zip and your software may not like that, try None

TIFF files exported from the Affinity applications are compressed by default, possibly using a form of compression not supported by your other application. You can change that using the More... button in the Export dialog.

Thank you to both Walt & David.  Your suggestion worked fine.  

Your assistance is much appreciated
