In the Metrics, Annotation Layers, Standards and Profile Maps tabs of Export Metrics you can select or deselect via check boxes the metrics you wish to output in either a Grid Format or Plate Format. Both Grid and Plate format have further customizations in the Export Options tab as shown in the following screenshot. Options in this screen are enabled or disabled according to whether you are exporting in Grid or Plate Format. This menu is associated with all the tabs in Export Current Plate.

 

The Supplemental Data radio buttons allows you to specify formats for output data.
