Exporting and optimizing

Optimization of web graphics is an essential factor if you want to keep fast download times for your web pages.

In order to make graphics have the smallest file size possible, yet still look good, it is often necessary to optimize them. Xara Xtreme has fantastic built-in optimization for web graphics, and also allows you to take complete control of color palettes yourself.

This means that you can choose the exact settings you want, including: color depth, dithering and transparency. You can also lock specific colors to make sure they are retained within the image. You can preview every change you make so you can see what the result will be before committing yourself and in the Export Dialog you can compare different export options so you know which one is best.
