18 === Format ===
19
20 Since version 6.2.0 a format needs to be selected for exporting the form. This format determines the compatibilty to other {{formcycle case="dat"/}} versions and the resulting file size of the export. The following formats are available:
21
22 * {{litem title="Compatibilty format (recommended)"}}This format allows offers the most flexibility since the exported form may be imported in all {{formcycle case="dat"/}} version from 6.0.0 upwards. The file size of this format will be greater though. {{info}}If a form is imported in an older {{formcycle case="dat"/}} version, only the features that are available in that version will be imported.{{/info}}{{/litem}}
23 * {{litem title="Default format"}}Selecting this format will result in a reduced file size. Exports of this format can only be imported in {{formcycle case="dat"/}} since version 6.2.0.{{/litem}}

25 === Extended settings ===

27 The extended settings are only available if the form has dependencies. These dependencies may be [[form>>doc:Formcycle.UserInterface.MyForms.Files.WebHome]] or [[client files>>doc:Formcycle.UserInterface.FilesAndTemplates.Files.WebHome]] that are used in the [[workflow>>doc:Formcycle.UserInterface.MyForms.WorkflowProcessing.WebHome]], [[templates>>doc:Formcycle.UserInterface.FilesAndTemplates.WebHome||anchor="templates"]] that are used in the [[workflow>>doc:Formcycle.UserInterface.MyForms.WorkflowProcessing.WebHome]], [[Double-Opt-In settings>>doc:Formcycle.UserInterface.MyForms.DoubleOptIn.WebHome]] or directly inside the form as well as [[data sources>>doc:Formcycle.UserInterface.Data.Sources.WebHome]] that may be used for [[prefilling selection elements>>doc:Formcycle.FormDesigner.FormElements.Selection.WebHome]]. Individual dependencies may be selected or deselected for the export.
