[Gimp-user] JPEG Help

2014-08-22 Thread Tibbins, Aimee
Hi,

I am currently using GIMP 2.0 for some work related graphics. When I go to save 
the image they only save as a xcf. File instead of  JPEG. Wondered if anyone 
was able to help with how I get them to save as a JPEG?

Thanks,
Aimee

Hi Aimee,

Please use 'File  - Export...' menu item instead.

FileSave only saves to XCF. For other filetypes, use FileExport (and 
consider keeping the XCF file around in case you find you need to do 
further changes).

Export the file to the desired format.

As you say saving saves to GIMP's native format.

Simple really :-)
