Subtitles of the Movie (Adobe Photoshop 7 / Saving/Printing / PSD format)
On or my working processes, when I am working on a digital illustration such as this (which contains multiple layers including vector-based information), is that I save out versions of my document. And I always save my working documents as Photoshop format. The Photoshop format supports layers, and of course what that means is that I can save my document, and turn off my computer and come back at a later time, launch Photoshop and open this document and have access to all of my layers. Under the file menu, I'm going to choose save as, because I always like to give my files a new version number to indicate that I've made some kind of change. And then later on when I am finally really finished with my image, I could throw out previous versions if I wish. So I'm going to call this one snail-power version-4, and for the format (as I mentioned), I'm going to save it as Photoshop because this is my working file. And for my working file, I always want to maintain access to all my layer information. I could choose to save this as a copy. Which would maintain my document, while saving a different version. But since I've given it a different name, it doesn't really matter. Since this document has alpha channels associated with it, this is an option I can choose to save my alpha channels. And I also have an annotation; I'll choose to save that as well. And I always make sure that layers is enabled. And while I am at it, I'm going to go ahead and save the working color profile that was used when I created this document, my Adobe RGB profile. So I'll go ahead and click save and this document will be of course saved to the folder that I created to save these documents. And most importantly, I can always come back to this particular version or state of the image, and edit it and all its layers.
