Note that high-throughput sequencing data formats from Illumina, SOLiD, IonTorrent, 454 and also high-throughput fasta and trace files are imported using a special import as described in Import high-throughput sequencing data. These data can also be exported in fastq format (using NCBI/Sanger Phred quality scores).
When exporting in fasta format, it is possible to remove sequence ends covered by annotations of type "Trim" (read more in Trimming).
