## Exporting Data

Data of many common file formats can be exported by IDL iTools. File formats that are exportable are:

ASCII text | JPEG2000
Binary data | Macintosh PICT
Encapsulated Postscript (EPS) | Portable Network Graphics (PNG)
Graphics Interchange Format (GIF) | Tag Image File Format (TIFF)
iTools State | Windows Bitmap (BMP)
Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPG) | Windows Enhanced Metafile (WMF)

You can export data from an iTool to a data file or back to the current IDL session:

- Exporting Data to a File

- Exporting Data to the IDL Session

These methods are discussed next.
