- On the ribbon, click
Raster Tools tab
Insert & Write panel
Image Export.
- Select the frame of the image you want to export.
The Export dialog box is displayed.
- In the Files Of Type box, select the desired format for the new image.
If you are exporting a DEM or multispectral image the type must be GeoTIFF.
Note: AutoCAD works best with certain image types. To optimize performance, export or save your images in tiled compressed TIFF format whenever possible. - Optionally, to navigate to a new location to which to export the image, do one of the following:
- Select the drive and folder using standard Windows navigation procedures.
- Select a location from the Places List on the left side of the dialog box to navigate directly to the Documents folder, Desktop, or Favorites folder.
- In either the File Name or Base Name box, enter a name for the image file or select a file name from the list.
Note: You cannot export an image to a file name that is locked. For example, if one person loads image1.tif and locks the raster image file, then another person can not export image2.tif to image1.tif because the first person has a raster file lock for image1.tif. For more information about locking image files, see Locking Method for Image Files.
- Click Export.
- In the Encoding Method dialog box, specify whether to compress the image, and if so, which encoding method to use. Click Next.
- In the Data Organization dialog box, specify Tiled, Stripped, or Monolithic. Click Next.
- In the Export Options dialog box, specify the relationship between the exported image and the drawing. Specify how to handle image rotation, if applicable, and correlation data.
- Do one of the following:
- If a Finish button is displayed at the bottom of the screen, click the button to export the image.
- If a Next button is displayed at the bottom of the screen, click the button to open the Coordinate System Assignment dialog box, where you can select a GeoTIFF coordinate system for the exported image.
