Filter

• None compresses the image without a filter. This option is recommended for indexed-color and bitmap-mode images.
• Sub optimizes the compression of images with even horizontal patterns or blends.
• Up optimizes the compression of images with even vertical patterns.
• Average optimizes the compression of low-level noise by averaging the color values of adjacent pixels.
• Path optimizes the compression of low-level noise by reassigning adjacent color values.
• All applies the filter—Sub, Up, Average, or Path—that is best-suited for the image. Select All if you are unsure of which filter to use.

Compression

Specify a method to reduce the file size.

GIF and PNG

Interlace

When you select this check box, images first appear blurry and become sharper as they are downloaded. When Interlace is cleared, images appear gradually, top to bottom, as they are downloaded.

With still .gif images, interlacing enables users with slow connections to click past an image they are not interested in viewing without having to download the whole image. Interlacing is not recommended for animated .gifs.

Always Export images

Select the Always Export images check box to always export the images to disk. To only update images when they are changed or for new images, clear the Always Export images check box.

Use Images On Disk

Select the Use Images On Disk check box to use the original images on disk instead of exporting out new ones.

Color Mode

Select the mode to use.

Palette

This drop-down list is available when you select Palette from the Color Mode drop-down list. Determine which set of 256 (or fewer) colors is used in the exported animation:

• Adaptive automatically selects a set of colors that best approximate the original.
• Web-safe uses a standard set of 216 colors. Web-safe colors are recommended for BlackBerry devices.

Dithering

Dithering might improve image quality. Selecting this option increases your file size.

From the Dithering drop-down list, select the type of error diffusion to use.

Dithering Noise

From the Dithering Noise drop-down list, select a value.
