Scope

  • Active Comp: exports the currently open composition
  • Selected Comps: exports the compositions you've selected
  • Selected Comps (Separate Project Files): exports each selected composition into a separate project file

Naming

  • Naming: the name pattern of the exported project file(s). Type text, or click the ▼ on the left for presets and tokens such as $comp, $project and $date. The ▼ on the right lists your recent patterns
  • Export to: allows you to choose where to export

Options

  • After export: what happens when the export is done: "Ask", "Open the original", "Open the exported file", "Reveal the exported file" or "Nothing"
  • Collect into a folder next to each file: copies the footage each export uses into a footage folder next to the exported file and links the export to the copies. The original project is not changed
  • Include comps linked by expressions: keeps the comps and footage that expressions point to, so the links still work in the exported file

Buttons

  • Save & Export: saves the project file with the current changes and exports the project file(s)
  • Export without save: exports the project file(s) from a copy. The current project is not saved

How to use

  1. Select what to export and specify its name
  2. Choose the export destination
  3. Click 'Save & Export' to save the current project and export, or 'Export without save' to export without saving it
