Export Files

Images can be exported to Data Files (.cxd), Movie Files (.avi), individual Image Files, OME TIFFs and Multi-page TIFFs. Data can be exported to spreadsheet files.

Note: MPTIFF files have a 4 GB size limit and a 65,000 image limit. For image sequences larger than 4 GB or having more than 65,000 images, will be saved as a sequentially numbered series of MPTIFF files.
