Export a diagram
Last modified: June 2, 2025
dbForge Studio supports diagram export to the following formats – .bmp, .jpg, .gif, .png, .tif, and .emf.
Export a diagram
To export a diagram:
1. Right-click the diagram and select Export to Image.
2. In the Save As window, specify a folder to store the file, a file name, and an image format.
3. To save the changes, select Save.
Export large diagrams
The bitmap generation engine needs a contiguous memory block to process large diagrams. Memory fragmentation can cause failures, particularly for diagrams exceeding 10,000 x 10,000 pixels, though smaller ones may also be affected. The following error appears: The error occurred while diagram exporting. Probably, the image is oversized. Try to export to another format.
To resolve the issue, try the following:
- Save the diagram in a vector format (.emf) to bypass bitmap limitations.
- Restart the application to clear memory and attempt exporting again.
- Use third-party RAM optimization or defragmentation tools to improve memory allocation.
