Exporting is super easy, you just right-click on the map and choose export, or alternatively there's a button on the toolbar for it and I think you can do it from the menus. You can export the various maps to a large number of file formats, presumably supported by your terrain engine of choice.
Sapphire is the in-built 3d renderer that'll let you walk around your terrain and get a better idea of the shape of things, etc. You can also use it to sculpt the ground using a variety of tools. It's not really like gimp but you can paint the ground with it. Again it's very simple to use.
Have you tried the standard version? you can do all this and try it out yourself to see if you can handle it.
