To extract CSV data fields when exporting to other formats

If you are exporting to an image or other format,  the fields can be extracted simultaneously into CSV format. In this case the file is not given the extension CSV, but a .LOG file is created instead.

Choose the image or other export Format and set any options required - see Exporting files manually -  then select the field logging options - see options for Log file export.
