GRAPHICPROJECT: Export project in graphic format (TIF, GIF, PNG, JPG).
GRAPHICPAGE: Export pages in graphic format (TIF, GIF, PNG, JPG).

PROJECTNAME

If nothing is entered, the selected project will be used if the action is to be run over the user interface (e.g. via script or the toolbar). When executing from the Windows command line, PROJECTNAME must be specified or ProjectAction has to be used before that. Otherwise a system message will appear.

Scheme for graphical export (optional). Supplies the default values for other optional parameters. If this parameter is not available or empty (""), then the most recently used graphical export scheme is used.

DESTINATIONPATH 

Target directory where the graphic data is saved. If this directory does not exist yet, it will be created. Below this directory a new directory with the name of the project is created when exporting a project. It will store the individual graphic files.

• BMP: Available color depth: 1, 4, 8, 16, 24 and 32
