To Set Up Options for the Rendered Output File

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

    The Render Output File dialog opens.

  2. In the File Name field, enter the name for the file to be rendered.
  3. Navigate the Save In field to choose the directory where you want the rendered file to be saved.
  4. Choose the type of file you want to render from the Save As Type drop-down list, then click Save.

    A dialog is displayed 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.

    Note: You can also view the setup dialog by clicking Setup, if this button is available.
    Warning: Make sure the file name extension in the File Name field matches the file type in the Save As Type field. Changing the file type does not update the file name automatically. The file options dialog depends on the type indicated by the file name, not the type indicated by Save As Type.
  5. If the Render Output File dialog is still open, click Save.
