KEYWORDS: PRINT PICT JPEG IMAGE WEB

Print to JPEG creates standard JPEG image files via the printing mechanism 
on your Macintosh.  You can create a JPEG file from virtually any document 
that can be printed.

Print to JPEG is an extension for Baudouin Raoult's excellent Print to PICT 
utility, which is a printer driver that previews and saves printed pages to 
PICT files or the clipboard.  Extensions are provided by the author to 
write graphic file formats such as GIF and TIFF, but not JPEG. You can 
almost certainly get Print to PICT from the same place that you got Print 
to JPEG. (It's available on AOL in the Internet Connection's file library.)

Why use it?

It is very useful to be able to generate JPEG images from your documents in 
one easy step.  JPEG is a widely recognized standard.  It is supported by 
many applications, including every good Web browser.  It provides very good 
compression, particularly for photographic images.  Print to JPEG uses the 
components provided with Apple QuickTime to perform the compression, so you 
can count on the resulting images being correct.  Since the JPEG algorithms 
can involve some loss of image quality, it is important to have complete 
control over the amount of compression applied.  Print to JPEG provides 
that control.
