Windows Thumbnail to save a preview that can display on Windows systems.

File Extension (Windows) Choose an option for the three-character file extensions that
indicate a file's format: Use Upper Case to append file extensions using uppercase
characters or Use Lower Case to append file extensions using lowercase characters.

use on or transfer to a Windows system. Choose an option for appending extensions to
filenames: Never to save files without file extensions, Always to append file extensions to
filenames, or Ask When Saving to append file extensions on a file-by-file basis. Select Use
Lower Case to append file extensions using lowercase characters.
To toggle the Append File Extension option for a single file, hold down Option when
you choose a file format in the Save As dialog box.
