+ Exporting alignments as graphics and lineart
+
+
+ The alignment view can be printed using File→Print,
+ or exported in a number of ways via the File→Export
+ menu:
+
+ - HTML
for viewing in a web browser
+
+ - PNG - a Portable Networks Graphics image
For
+ low quality diagrams and powerpoint presentations
+
+ - EPS - an Encapsulated Postscript Document
For
+ high quality diagrams and publications.
+ - SVG - a Scalable Vector Graphics document
For
+ high quality diagrams in publications and on the web.
+
+ - BioJS MSA - A JavaScript based multiple sequence alignment
+ viewer.
For interactive alignment data
+ visualisation in a web browser.
Get more info about the
+ BioJS MSA viewer at http://msa.biojs.net/
+
+
+
+
+
+
+ Exporting alignments as Web Pages
+
+ In Jalview 2.9, new HTML exporting options were introduced. The
+ standard HTML export option displays alignments as SVG documents
+ embedded as scrollable panes. Exported pages can optionally also
+ include BioJSON data,
+ which allows Jalview to extract the original data used to create the
+ page. Jalview can also generate HTML pages which embed BioJSON data
+ and the BioJS MSA viewer, a pure javascript alignment viewer that
+ provides a range of interactive analysis capabilities.
+
+
+
+ Tips for working with EPS Files
+
+ The EPS file generated by Jalview contains vector graphics
+ which are directly editable in graphics applications such as Adobe
+ Illustrator.
+ EPS files can be produced as "Text" or
+ "Lineart". Use "Text" if you want the final
+ document to be MUCH smaller in diskspace and be able to search, edit
+ and select text. Use "Lineart" if you want an exact image
+ of the alignment as displayed in Jalview. This is useful if a 3rd
+ Party EPS viewer does not have the same Font which the EPS file was
+ created with.
+ When importing an EPS file into a Microsoft office document,
+ a snapshot image of the file will be displayed which often looks
+ blurred. Right-click the image and choose "Edit image." to
+ convert it to word drawing objects which give a truer WYSIWIG
+ representation.
+ Mac OSX users will find that eps files are automatically
+ converted into PDF files.
