Saving Editing Results
Saving Editing Contents to a RAW Image
All the contents (recipe) adjusted with the tool palette as well as the trimmed range information can be saved to a RAW image or to a separate RAW image. The adjustments made with the tool palette and the dust erase processing (Performing Automatic Dust Erasure Processing, Manually Erasing Dust (Repair Function)) can also be saved in a RAW image.
Select the [File] menu → [Save] or [Save As].
Your adjustments are saved to the image.
Saving as a JPEG or TIFF Image
To view, edit and print a RAW image with software other than DPP, convert to a more versatile JPEG or TIFF image and save. The image is saved as a separate image, so the RAW image remains unaffected.
-
Select the image to be converted.
-
Select the [File] menu → [Convert and save].
-
The [Convert and save] window appears.
-
Specify the necessary settings, and then click the [Save] button.
-
By default, the image is converted and saved to a JPEG image with the highest image quality, without changing the image size. Change the settings according to your requirements.
-
The RAW image is converted to a JPEG or TIFF image which is then saved as a new image in the specified save destination.

| [Quality setting] | [Image quality]: JPEG compression rate*1 |
| [Output setting] | [Output resolution]: Resolution*2 |
| [Embed ICC profile in image]: Embeds of ICC profiles.*3 | |
| [Resize setting] | Size changing*4 |
*1The setting range is 1 to 10. The higher the numerical value, the higher the image quality becomes.
*2The setting range is 1 to 60,000 dpi.
*3Color space information that is set in an image is attached to an ICC profile. Even if you remove the check mark from images that have been set to Apple RGB, ColorMatch RGB or Wide Gamut RGB color space, the ICC profiles are embedded automatically.
*4The larger of the two values set in [Width] and [Height] is applied to the longer edge of an image and change its size.
DPP's RAW image development processing technology is continually being improved upon so that you can perform the latest image processing more appropriately. Meaning that, between two differing versions of DPP, processing results may differ very slightly even if with the same RAW image data, or the results of significant editing of RAW image data with an attached recipe may be different. When you want to save the developing or editing results of the version you are currently using as it is, it is recommended that you convert and save images as JPEG image or TIFF images.
By saving as explained above, a trimmed image or dust-erased image (Performing Automatic Dust Erasure Processing, Manually Erasing Dust (Repair Function)) actually becomes a trimmed image or dust-erased image.

You can reduce the noise characteristic of JPEG images which occurs when you convert and save an image as a JPEG. (General Settings)
You can batch convert and save multiple images. (Batch Save as JPEG or TIFF Images (Batch Processing))
