The quality of JPEG images can be set using the QUALITY parameter.

PPM format is basically uncompressed 24 bit. The files are therefore very large and it is suggested that a compressing file handler (such as XFH or EPU) is used. This format is provided mainly to allow the easy production of MPEG movies.

The save format also controls which Icon is saved with the image.
