After choosing your optimization settings, export the image as a JPEG file.

  1. Select File > Export.

    The filename listed has a .jpg extension. Fireworks chose this file format because you selected it in the Optimize panel.

  2. Browse to the following folder on your hard disk:

    local_sites/cafe_townsend/images/

  3. Ensure that the Save As Type (Windows) or Save As (Macintosh) pop-up menu reads Images Only, and click Export.

    The JPEG file is exported to the images folder.

    Remember that the PNG file is your source file, or working file. Although you exported your document in JPEG format, you also must save the PNG file so that any changes you made will be reflected in the source file too.

  4. Select File > Save to save the changes to the PNG file.
