You can create a device-independent
raster image of the objects in your drawing.
Several
commands can be used to export objects into device-independent raster
images in the bitmap, JPEG, TIFF, and PNG formats.
Objects
are displayed in the raster image as they appear on the screen,
including objects in shaded and rendered viewports.
File formats such as JPEG are compressed as they
are created. Compressed files take up less disk space, but they
might not be readable by certain applications.
