# Format

The output format for the encoded images. This parameter overrides any file extension specified in the OutputPath parameter, and overrides any transformation made by an Image Format transformation task.

Set this parameter to one of the following values:

- `bmp`
- `gif`
- `jpeg`
- `pdf`
- `png`
- `ppm`
- `tiff`
- `webp`

Type: | String
Default: | Uses the file extension from the value of the OutputPath parameter. If an extension is not present, the encoder respects the format set in the input record, which defaults to PNG but can be modified by an Image Format transformation task.
Required: | No
Configuration Section: | TaskName
Example: | `Format=tiff`
