Outputting your project
Ulead COOL 3D offers you great flexibility in how you output your project. Whether you
want to use your project in a video, on a web page, or simply as a graphic element for a
document, you have a large variety of options to choose from.
Creating image files
You can output your saved project to a variety of image formats: BMP, GIF, JPEG, and
TGA. The following section will give you an idea of what quality you can expect with
each file type, along with some of the options you have for the respective formats.
•
BMP saves your image with high quality
and no data loss. However, the trade-off
is that you end up with a large file size.
Generally, this is the most appropriate
format if you want to make high quality
and high resolution graphics.
•
GIF saves the image at small file sizes,
depending on the compression you apply
to it. This is the format most commonly
used for Web pages and is most appro-
priate for graphics and illustrations that
are relatively small and do not contain a
lot of tonal nuances. When saving an
image in this format, you can choose
how many colors you want the engine to
recognize. A smaller number of colors
generally results in smaller file sizes, but
in some cases might compromise the
quality of the image. You can also set the
background to be transparent, so that
when you place the image on a Web
page, the background of the Web page
will appear as the backdrop for the
image.
Saving your project
When you have finished editing your work, you can save it in the Ulead COOL 3D format
(*.c3d). This allows you to reopen the project in Ulead COOL 3D for further editing and
revision. If you want to output your project as an image, Web animation, or video file,
take a look at the following pages for more information.
