Okay you’re working on your epic illustration and you need to save it as a JPEG so you can email it to your best buddy— only you’re not given that option;
You have JPEG 2000 but guess what— that’s friggin’ useless. It’s going to actually save as a JPF which is virtually useless everywhere. I’m guessing someone on a DELL ™ computer came up with this file format.
So how do you get a good old fashioned JPEG out of your image— it’s easy.
Flatten your Image and then go to WINDOWS>CHANNEL and check to see if you have a layer called ALPHA- looks like this….
Delete it.
Hit the trash can and send it into the void of the universe. Now you’ll be able to go to FILE SAVE AS and viola— good old fashioned JPEG will be available!
Why is JPF even a thing and why do we have ALPHA Layers? That’s another story for another time.
