Image Data Section

Original Data

Activated: Exports the image with the original channel colors and the original display characteristic curve.

Convert to 8 Bit

Activated: The pixels are shifted to 16 bit before converting to 8 bit. For example, a 14 bit image is first transformed to a 16 bit image which is then converted to an 8 bit image. The 14 bit range is mapped to the whole 8 bit range.
Deactivated: No shift takes place. A 14 bit image is treated as a 16 bit image and therefore the transformation to 8 bit covers only a reduced range.

Apply Display Curve and Channel Color

Activated: Exports the image with the changed channel color and display characteristic curve settings. These settings are applied to the pixel values of the exported images. They are particularly important if you want to use dark images with a dynamic range of more than 8 bits in other programs.

Burn-in Annotations

Activated: Burns the graphical elements into the image. The pixels under the graphical element (e.g. scale bars) are overwritten. The burnt-in graphical elements cannot be modified.

–

Zoom

Only available if Burn-in Annotations is activated.
Sets the zoom of graphic elements for export. Note that this is only applied to regions for which Zoom with Image is deactivated in the Format Graphical Elements dialog.

The default is 100%, which means that the graphical elements are rendered as they would if the viewer zoom was 100%. When the zoom increases, the graphical elements are rendered larger (e.g. with zoom 200, graphical elements are rendered twice as large, but it corresponds to the size they would have if the viewer zoom was 50%).

–

Get Zoom from Viewer

Only available if Burn-in Annotations is activated.
Gets the current zoom factor of the graphical elements in the 2D view.

Burn-in Analysis Results

Only available if Burn-in Annotations is activated.
Activated: If the image contains analysis results, the masks of the results are burned into the image.
