How to change screenshot file format?

With Grab, the default file format for a screenshot is .tiff and with command-shift-4 the default file format is .png. Is there a way to change these default file formats through systems preferences or otherwise?
I just discovered you can take screen shots with Preview (even if there's no file open in Preview) and "save as" in a number of file formats. Woo-hoo!
I'm still curious about options for Grab and command-shift-4, though. Any thoughts?

If you open the Help info for Grab (and select "Converting Grab screen shots to other formats") you will see it says that Grab only saves files in TIFF format and that if you want to convert the format to something else it recommends using Preview or any other appropriate converter.
FWIW, there's plenty of other screen capture programs to choose from.  Just put "screen capture" into a macupdate.com search to see the various "flavors".

  • How to change open file dialogue box date format

    Hi - I can't find how to change the date format whenever I open any creative suite document - my system preferences are set to dd/mm/yy and every other application shows this date except for CS4 it shows mm/dd/yy. Can anyone help please. Much appreciated.

    Hi, I'm having the same problem with the date format - all Creative Suite 'open' menu items are showing US format mm/dd/yyyy rather than UK format dd/mm/yyyy... although everything else on my system is set for UK format and all other programs open properly. The strange thing is: I'm sure this has only just happened after years of using Creative Suite... I'm sure I would have noticed it before. I'm on CS3 so haven't had any recent updates that might have affected it.

  • How to display Doc file format in the JEditPane?

    At this time , JEditPane supports RTF and HTML file format ,but
    Could anyone tell me how to display DOC file format using JEditPane
    or other JTextComponents?
    Thx a lot!
    Caton

    Hi,
    there is no support for doc files (M$ Word?) in Java. You would have to create your own classes for that eventually subclassing JEditorPane, EditorKit, Document etc. As well you'd need your own reader for the doc format.
    The problem I see with that however is that there is nothing such as thedoc file format. Microsoft just saves anything produced by MS Word into files ending with .doc. But, if there is anything such as a .doc file format, it changes more often than the weather in April.

  • Changing the file format

    hi guys,
    i hv a requirnment in which i need to read a file which is in .CGL format on a shared network path or application server which is nt possible to read directly so i need to first change the format of the file to .CSV and then read it using the FM KCD_CSV_FILE_TO_INTERN_CONVERT .
    so plz  tel me how to change the file extension
    thanks
    shivraj

    Not quite sure how you arrived at conclusion that CGL must be converted to CSV... CGL might turn out to be just a plain text file (e.g. many log files have .LOG extension but are just plain texts), in which case you can simply read it directly. Whether you'll be able to make sense of the file data - is another question and it depends on what is in that CGL file. Again, conversion to CSV might not even help.
    If CGL file is a proprietary format, you might not be able to read it in SAP at all without using some third-party tool.
    More info on CGL extension:

  • Batch Changing iPhoto File Formats

    I have scanned a few thousand photos and imported them to my iPhoto library. 90% of them are saved in Photoshop format. Most of these photos have comments, locations, and face IDs, The date has been changed to the date the photo was taken.
    How can I change the file format from Photoshop to JPEG and retain the data that currently exists?

    What settings exactly are you using in the Export window?
    There is no way to write Faces Information to a file. Simply there is no standard for sharing this information yet. The workaround is to use keywords. This is true of all Faces type technology on all systems.
    If your goal is "improved response time and more stable iPhoto Library" then the changing the file format is not what you need to do. I would be looking to other things.
    Can you describe the symptoms you are having?
    Regards
