Saving+Files

=How to Save a File in Photoshop CS6= Before you exit Photoshop CS6, you want to save your file on your hard drive or other media. Don't worry if you forget to do this; Photoshop won't let you exit without first asking you if you want to save any files that you've changed or newly created. Saving files from time to time while you work on them is a good idea so that you always have a recent copy safely stored on your drive. Follow these steps to save a file: > Choose File→Save As to store a file already saved with a different name, or even a file with the same name but in a different location. > The dialog box appears. > Credit: ©iStockphoto.com/eishier Image #4344852 > Some file formats have special capabilities and requirements. > As a Copy: Save the file as a copy. Version CS6 has added a couple excellent new save features. The Save in Background feature enables Photoshop to save in the background while you keep working on your image. The Automatically Save Recovery Information feature enables Photoshop to automatically save a backup of your files at a selected time interval for recovery if you were to crash the program. Your original file is left untouched. Both are preferences you must select in the File Handling section of your Preferences.
