Hi there. This video is all about exporting our file. Now I've broken exporting into three separate videos, mainly because it's a little, it'll be a little bit long for just one video. Plus you can kind of break 'em into three sections so you can kind of, I guess, take the details from the one that most plays to you. So the first action in this case is going to be when you are exporting for your client. And in this case we're gonna look at PDFs and JPEGs.
So it might be client approval, or the JPEGs in this case are gonna be the finals for our static banner adss, the video. After this we'll look at exporting for your colleagues. And then the last one will work with exporting. For those of you who are working with, say, web developers or app developers, and you are, you're designing graphics for them. Alright, so let's get started with the client exporting. Alright, so getting it out to our clients.
We're gonna do PDFs first and then we'll do JPEGs. So I've got my four art boards. I'm gonna go to file, I'm gonna go to export and boards to PDF. Super simple. I'm gonna click browse and put mine onto the desktop if I can find it. Okay.
Give it a name and you can decide on a few things. Okay? Just work, whatever works for you. Okay? So we're gonna do a multi-page document. You could do separate PDFs for each art board.
So you'd end up with four files in our case, encoding what sort of quality. I'm gonna crank mine right up 'cause I want, I'm not worried about file size. I want it to look great and, um, depends on, I'm gonna turn this on just so you can see it. It'll give the art board a name within the PDF. Um, I'll turn this on. I don't turn it on very often, but I'll turn it on just uh, for now so you can kind of see you might work great for what you are doing.
So it flashes through it a bit and eventually it'll say this, uh, upwards was successful. Thank you very much. So now on my desktop, there's my banner pdf. Okay, I'm gonna double click it to open it. It's gonna open up in the wrong screen over here. Here you go.
Okay. So the difference between, uh, turning that name on, okay, you see it added that the font's probably be a little big. Let's have a look. There's my rectangle, there's my square, there's my leaderboard and there's my skyscraper. If you want it just to the edges without this, uh, big random name. Turn off that last thing where we added the names for the boards.
Cool. We can send it off now maybe for client approval. Maybe you're not doing banner ads, we're just doing it for like concept. Okay? You're sending it to your colleague or your boss. You know what to do with PDFs.
Let's look at jps now. So back in Photoshop here, there's a, there's loads of ways of getting jps out of Photoshop. Now I'm gonna show you what I feel is the best. Okay, so we're gonna go to file and we're going to use export. And there's this one called Export as it's got a bad name, but it is by far the, has the most options in it. What's really cool about it is that, um, unlike Safer Web doesn't separate all the outboards out this export as does.
You can see rectangle, square, leaderboard and skyscraper. Couple of things that are useful, I can select them all. So I've got the first one selected, hold shift, grab the last ones, they're all selected. I can say actually I don't want them all to be PNGs. I want 'em all To be JPEGs and I can decide maybe they're gonna be 80% quality and you hit export and you're gonna get four separate JPEGs, but a little bit extra. What you can do is you can say, actually my friend, I need a high res version.
Or say, uh, say a high DPI or if you're doing kind of app design, maybe it's at two x. Okay, so you need a double size version. So I'm gonna hit, I've got 'em all selected. I'm gonna hit plus and I'm gonna say I want another version that is, you can see I can have a half size. I can say, uh, times double the size, three times the size. Okay?
So I'm gonna pick a double and it's gonna add the suffix to the end. If you're a bit of a web designer or a developer, you're gonna understand that and that could be really handy for dealing with high rears or retina images, even if you just want two different size versions. It doesn't have to be very fancy or web developer, okay? It just means you can have a half size and full size click export. I'm gonna put it onto my desktop. I'm gonna click open.
It's going to zap away a little bit. And when it's done, it should be on my desktop. I should have put it into a folder. Okay, mine, I just dumped here on the desktop. But you can see I've got leaderboard and I've got a leaderboard. Same name, but it's been appended with this extra at two x.
Okay? Just indicate that that is the double high resolution version. Let's open both of these. Gonna get a view, view, the actual size. So small version, big version, small version, big version. Super easy to do.
Just hit that little plus while you're exporting. Alright? It's exporting PDFs and jps all in the same sort of place, upwards to PDF. But use this export as when you're generating JPEGs, gives you a few little extra tricks up your sleeve while you're working. Alright, that's it for this video. Let's look at some more exporting in the next video.
