File types available for export

You can export a video program directly to videotape, or to a variety of video, audio, or still-image file formats. In addition to Premiere's Movie Export options (File > Export Timeline > Movie, or File > Export Clip > Movie), you can use any of the following plug-in options: Save for Web, Advanced Windows Media (Windows only), or Advanced RealMedia Export. For detailed information on these plug-ins, see the plug-in's online Help, or visit the plug-in manufacturer's Web site. The following file formats are available when you export. Additional file formats may be available in Premiere if provided with your video-capture card or if you have added separately available plug-in software.

Video formats Microsoft AVI, Animated GIF, QuickTime, MPEG, RealMedia, Windows Media

Audio-only formats AIFF, MP3, and Windows Audio Waveform (Windows only)

Still-image and sequence formats Filmstrip, FLC/FLI (Windows only), GIF sequence, PICT and PICT sequence (Mac OS only), Targa and Targa sequence, TIFF and TIFF sequence, Windows Bitmap and Windows Bitmap sequence (Windows only)

Note: Notations such as "Windows only" or "Mac OS only" refer to features that are specific to the Windows or Mac OS versions of Premiere. They are not intended to indicate whether a given file format can be opened or played on a particular computer platform.
