Export Options Dialog

The Export Options dialog includes general and file-format specific options when exporting files from Surfer. The Show options dialog option must be selected in the Export dialog to display the Export Options dialog.

The Size and Color and Scaling options are displayed for many of the export formats. Most file formats also include options unique to the selected format.

Projected Coordinates

If the map that you are exporting is in a defined coordinate system, the Spatial References tab will appear after clicking Save. This dialog allows you to specify the file format to which you want to save the projected information. Check the desired file formats. It is recommend that GS Reference (Version 2) file option be checked to generate a .GSR2 file. Click OK and the file is saved.

Supported Export Formats

The file-specific page in the Export Options dialog is unique to the export type you selected.
