Export formats Learn the differences.
You can export your projects in JPG, PNG, WebP and PSD formats and also as PNTR project files
JPG (JPEG) image file Most popular file format used in most digital cameras and on web sites. Note that JPEG uses lossy compression algorithm so the quality of the images is usually limited. However the files are small. PNG (Portable Network Graphics) image file Second most popular bitmap image format. This is the recommended format for bitmap data transfer. Uses lossless compression so original image data may be restored. PNG files may contain alpha channel (transparency). PNG file with transparency (RGBA) This option turns off your Paper layer and saves a composite of all layers in PNG format with preserved transparency. WebP New image file format developed by Google. The files are even smaller than JPEG with comparable quality, and also with support for transparency (RGBA). Note that not all third-part programs can read this format. PSD (.psd, Adobe Photoshop® document) Proprietary file format developed by Adobe Inc®; de facto standard in digital art. PSD files may be multilayer and may contain additional data like adjustment layers, layer masks, etc. Export to PSD to transfer multilayer Infinite Painter projects to other applications. Note that due to differences in structure, not all Infinite Painter's features may export faithfully in PSD format. Especially the textures used in Paper layer may not export properly as Photoshop doesn't have this functionality. ZIP All layers of your project will be exported as separate PNG files with transparency and saved in a single ZIP archive for easy handling. This may be useful when you need to transfer your multilayer project to another application for further editing, when PNTR and PSD options do not work for a reason. Note that this format does not support layer masks and adjustment layers. You may need a third-party tool to extract your files from the ZIP archive at the destination. PNTR (.pntr) Infinite Painter project Proprietary file format for storing Infinite Painter projects. Use this option to transfer your project to Infinite Painter installations on other devices. The format is common between Infinite Painter for iOS and Infinite Painter for Android so projects saved on one platform can be opened and edited on the other one. You can even export the version history (See p. 24) and timelapse video recording (See p. 425) in this format (or you can decide not to include them to save storage space).
