Save for Web is designed to produce the smallest possible file for uploading to a web page. You are not going to retain layers, vectors or alpha channels.
What are you trying to do? Why are you using Save for Web?
In CS3 Save for Web dialog box showed a small icon beside to the ‘Quality’ slider where you could choose an alpha channel and fine tuning the level of Jpeg compression. In the same dialog box there were options for text layers and vectors. I think the box was called ‘Quality Image settings.
What I’m trying to do, Ramon, is teaching my students where Adobe put that options in the CS4 release…even if I’m an ACI I can’t know everything…an ACI is not a clairvoyant 🙂
Probably my english is getting worse, I do apologize for that.
Are you sure? I don’t have CS3, but as far as I know jpg has never supported alpha channels or text layers, so why would those options appear in Save for Web? Certainly not there in previous versions.
It may be worth a continued search. Many things have been moved. While I am not at CS4 now, it was available in CS2 and CS3 so it is unlikely to have been a transient feature.
