How to set saving in jpeg as default

Oct four, 2016

In photoshop when y'all want to relieve a file, the default format setting is always "Photoshop". Nearly of my application is to be saved in jpeg. How do I control the format setting to jpeg becomes default equally I wish to cut down one step.

I gone thru all the commands nether Photoshop Preference and don't seems possible to alter the default. Or I may hv missed out.

Use "Save" if you wish to save the current land of your editing in PS (so you can resume editing at some later on time).

Utilise "Export" if you lot wish to create a jpeg, or tiff, etc.

No, it doesn't piece of work equally you said.

Either File>Save or File>Save Every bit, either command will pop out a box and the default format ever in Photoshop (ways it gonna relieve in PSD) unless nosotros take to practice i more step and change Photoshop to Jpeg. I would have thought besides that by clicking "save" there should not have whatsoever popular out box and it shld auto save in the same location and aforementioned format. Have I miss something?

When you use Salvage or Salve As, Photoshop volition typically default to the same file format that the file is (with the exception of RAW files), unless you have made edits that are unsupported past the format. For example, if your edit contains layers, layer masks and so on, it volition no longer be able to default to JPG and will ask to save every bit PSD.

Ok tks. Your caption is articulate.

Only why Save or Save As open upwards the same dialog box. Even I apply the default brusque cutting key both too open upwardly the aforementioned box.

In normal word doc, I understd the function of Save or Salvage As. The onetime saved into the aforementioned folder. The latter give y'all an option to change directory and file proper name.

But in PS, both give you the selection. Why?

Tks.

Not sure why your PS behaves this manner though.

If I open a JPG file, make some changes, and then striking salve, it saves back to the original file without dialog box.

If I open a JPG file, brand some changes, then hit save as, it opens a dialog box to ask what binder and file name (and the option to change formats, just the default is notwithstanding JPG).

If I open up a JPG file, make some changes including calculation a new layer or two, layer masks, transparency and stuff, then whether I striking relieve or salvage as, I get the dialog box that defaults to PSD.

+1 to this. The critical indicate hither is in one case you make edits that Photoshop is incapable of saving to the electric current format, information technology has to prompt you to choose a format capable of retaining those changes. So even the obviously "Salve" has to testify you the dialog because if it simply saved back over the JPG, it would accept to discard and flatten the layer data, rasterize fonts, pixelate paths and then Adobe would get support calls request where hours of editing piece of work went. After being prompted with the dialog, if you even so cull the original format of JPG, it will warn you that data volition exist lost.

It should also be noted that sometimes certain formats wont even be on the list. For example if y'all open a PNG, then alter the image mode from RGB to CMYK and make no other changes, then File..Save, yous will come across the dialog with PSD default and PNG wont be on the listing of formats since PNG does not support CMYK and cannot be saved.
