Storing layers as images in the Image Portfolio
The Image Portfolio is a convenient place to store layers as images so you can use them
again.
You can create your own Image Portfolio libraries to organize images by category.
When you’re creating a library, keep in mind that the smaller the library, the easier it
will be to see its contents at a glance.
You can also move items between Image Portfolio libraries. For more information, see
“Working with libraries” on page 45.
