If you save or print an image while an overlay on it is being displayed, the overlay image is written over the photographed image when it is saved or printed.
In this case, the photographed image and the overlay are integrated into a single image when saved, so you cannot erase the overlay from the saved image.
If the overlay is hidden while you save or print, only the photographed image is saved or printed.
•If you want to save an overlay by writing it over the image, we recommend saving it in an image size of 1280*960. For a 640*480 image size, it is possible that part of the text will be dropped.
Furthermore, if the image is saved in JPEG format, we recommend selecting a low compression rate such as Fine or Normal.
•For details, refer to “1.4.2 Image File Settings-File Settings” in Chapter VI.
•Select the appropriate image size according to its intended use by referring to the table shown below.
