To Name the Rendered Output File

1. Choose Rendering Render Setup, and then in the Render Output group of the Common Parameters rollout, click Files.

   This opens the Render Output File dialog.

2. Use the Save In field near the top of the dialog to choose the directory in which to save the rendered file.
3. In the File Name field, enter the name for the file to be rendered.
   Tip: If you enter a filename extension as well (for instance: myimage.bmp) and then press Tab, the Setup button activates and you can click it to change the file settings.
4. Choose the type of file you want to render from the Save As Type drop-down list.
   Tip: If you entered the filename extension as part of the file name, you can skip this step.
5. Click Save to close the Render Output File dialog.

   Clicking Save also opens a dialog that lets you set the options for the file format you chose. Adjust these settings (or leave them at their defaults), and then click OK.

6. On the Render Setup dialog, click the Render button to render the scene and save the file.
   Note: If a file of the same name already exists, a dialog opens to let you confirm overwriting it. This dialog also provides a checkbox for automatically overwriting render-output files without being prompted for the duration of the session.
