    Once you've created your image and sized it to be the size you want:
    Click on the 'File' menu, then click on 'Export...'
    Then open up the dropdown menu where is says 'Save as type:'
    Choose the type you want to export as.

    Of course it depends upon what types of images you phone can open?
    But, I would have thought that 'jpg' should be no problem.

    Hi Jodie,

    Look in the help guide under 'content-aware photo resize'. If that doesn't explain things enough for you then post back here and I or someone else will help you out.

    Good to hear, Jodie.

    Sometimes you just don't know the right terminology to search for and the right term is all you need to push you in the right direction.
