Hello, Minou. The reason for this choice of output formats is because the resolution is much higher and preferable for journal submissions. If you desire .jpg images, the easiest solution would be to use third-party software to convert the browser's output into a .jpg file. It is possible that the viewer you are already using can do this with a "Save As" function. There are also many freeware converters available on the web.
If you're using a Windows or Mac platform, you can easily make a screen capture, though this will be lower resolution and not journal quality. Simply paste the screen capture into a paint program (already included with the operating system) and then save that as a .jpg file. If you have further questions, please don't hesitate to contact the mailing list: [email protected].

Would it be possible to include the option of saving an image in .jpg?
