Raster Images Files Save As Options Dialog

Use this dialog to specify the save options for a raster image file. Examples of raster images include BMP, TIFF, JPG and GIF files. The options available vary with the file format. (e.g., some image files may support quality factors or thumbnails). In addition, the options for a specific image file may change based on the values of other options (e.g. the color depth value can affect the available compression types).
