Export Layers is a GIMP plug-in exports layers as separate images in any file format supported by GIMP and third-party plug-ins.

Features:

  • uses native dialogs for file formats to adjust export settings
  • uses layer names as filenames for the exported images
  • can treat layer groups as folders
  • can use layers with names in [square brackets] as background layers
  • can optionally export only layers whose file extension matches the specified file extension
  • can use file extensions in layer names as file formats

This plug-in requires GIMP 2.8 or later and Python 2.7 or later from the 2.7.x series.

Plug-in can be found at "File -> Export Layers...". A dialog appears, allowing you to specify output folder, file extension and various other settings. To export layers with the last settings used, you may want to choose "File -> Export Layers (repeat)".

Release Notes

2.4 (October 4, 2015)

  • The "File extension" text field now displays a dropdown list of file formats and associated file extensions (upon clicking or pressing Up/Down keys). Several third-party formats are also listed, provided that the corresponding plug-ins are installed. You can still enter a file extension not in the dropdown list in case you use a different file format plug-in.
  • Renamed "Export Layers to" to "Export Layers (repeat)".
  • Added mnemonics (keyboard shortcuts) to the dialog in "Export Layers (repeat)" and to the overwrite confirmation dialog.
  • Misc. bug fixes and minor adjustments.
