Export a selection only

[Sunset]

I've created a drawing on an A4 preset page and I want to export just the drawing, which takes up only a small area, not the whole page. How can I do this, please?

Just noticed the reply in a recent question.

 

I tried the Export Personal and exported as a slice but the paint colours (pixel) have changed,

Are you sure everything was included in the slice (including any pixel layers)?

It's working fine here...

That is interesting, it looked all wrong when I opened it in the Mac Viewer, but it is perfect when attached to an email.

Maybe you have exported a PNG with transparency. If you used brushes or any bitmap/vector effects with transparency/blend modes you may see the colours a little different depending on the background color of the application you are using to view the file.

Yes, it was the transparency that I had applied to some of the brushes, I am fighting my way round the Mac at the same time, which sometimes doesn't help :)

 

Ash's answer in the other thread to use the Persona and Slice did exactly what I wanted - I shall now use my sketch in another Serif program :)

 

Thankyou for your help :)

You're welcome Sunset.
