Export the Rendered Image to a File

After rendering a 3D view, you can export the image to a file. This file is stored outside the project in the specified location.

Revit supports the following image file types: BMP, JPEG, JPG, PNG, and TIFF.

Note: To preserve the alpha channel for transparency, use the PNG or TIFF file format. If you plan to use the exported image in Adobe® Photoshop®, export to TIFF for best results. (If you export to PNG and open the file in Adobe® Photoshop®, the background sky and clouds may not display.)

To export the rendered image

1. In the Rendering dialog, under Image, click Export.
2. In the Save Image dialog, for Save in, navigate to the desired location.
3. For Files of type, select a file type.
4. For File name, enter a name for the image file.
5. Click Save.
