### 5.4. Exportar archivo

GIMP uses the Save command only for saving images in its native XCF format. When you need your image in a different file format, you can use the Export command.

Figura 15.61. Diálogo de exportar imagen

#### 5.4.1. Activar el diálogo

- You can access this command in the main menu through File → Export As…,

- or from the keyboard by using the shortcut Ctrl+Shift+E.

#### 5.4.2. El diálogo «Exportar imagen»

In the file browser, you can edit filename and extension directly in the Name field (default is “Untitled.png”) or by selecting an existing file to override in name list. Navigate the folders if you prefer a different image destination. You can also create a new folder if necessary.

Seleccione el tipo de archivo. If you expand this option, you can select the file format and related file extension for your file in the list.

Los diálogos de formatos de archivo se describen en la Sección 1, “Archivos”.

#### 5.4.3. Exportar

Cuando el nombre de archivo y el destino se establecen, pulse en Exportar. Esto abre el diálogo de exportación para el formato de archivo especificado.

| Nota
If the name you entered already existed, you will be asked if you want to overwrite that file or not. If a layer mask or channel is selected instead of a layer, and the export format does not support this, you will be asked for confirmation.

If you have loaded a non-XCF file, the File → Overwrite command (followed by the file name) allows you to overwrite the original file, keeping its file format.

If you modify an image that you already have exported before, the File → Export to command (followed by the file name) allows you to export the file again in the same file format.
