Saving files for the Web
The easiest way to create Web pages in Canvas is to save a Canvas
document using the Save to Web command.
In this exercise, youll save a Canvas document in HTML format
using the Save to Web command. Then you can view the page in a
Web browser to see the hyperlinks, Web buttons, and animated GIFs.
To begin, open the document named Homepage.CNV. Like the
document you worked on earlier, this document contains hyperlinks,
Web buttons, and animated GIFs. Youll use this document to learn
about the options for saving Web pages.
To save a Web site using the Web Publishing Wizard.
1
Choose File > Save To Web to open the Web Publishing Wiz-
ard, which is a series of screens to assist you in publishing your
Web site. Be certain to read the dialog next to each item.
2
In the first screen, select the radio button for Save the Entire
Document. Click Next.
3
In the second screen, select the radio button for Auto. Click
Next.

When the third screen appears, select HTML 4 with Table
Layout as the HTML output method and Finest for the anti-
aliasing option. Click Next.

Click Finish to open the directory dialog box.
Tip
Prior to exporting your doc-
ument as an HTML file, we
recommend that you make
certain to save your original
project as a Canvas file. You
can then edit the original
Canvas document if you
want to make changes at a
later date.
