<h3>Save vector layer as...</h3>

<p>This dialog allows you to save vector data in various formats using GDAL/OGR.

<ul>
<li>From the <label>Format</label> list you can select the destination format (as advertised by OGR).
<li>At <label>Save as</label> you can enter a destination files name or select one using the <label>Browse</label> button.
<li>In the <label>Encoding</label> list you can define in which encoding the data should be saved.
<li>Using the <label>CRS</label> you can select a CRS into which the data about to be saved should be reprojected.
<li>OGR also has various options for the different formats it supports.  Use the <label>datasource</label> creation field to set the datasource options and the <label>layer</label> creation options. Enter one options per line (e.g. <code>SPATIALITE=yes</code> in the <label>datasource</label> to create a spatialite database using the SQLite driver).
</ul>

See <a href="http://gdal.org/ogr_formats.html">OGR Vector formats</a> for a list of supported formats and the available options.
