Default Changing jpg format

I have a graphic that is in jpg format but I need it in another format. Can someone tell me how to do this (if it's not terribly technical) or would someone do it for me? It's for reproduction.

What format do you need it in? If its a common one then;

"Open for editing" should be an option when you left [er, right] click.

"Save as" whatever format you need.


If its a goofy format, post the pic and the required format and I'll give it a go.

I left clicked and nothing came up as choices. I opened it in Office Picture Manager and then when I attempt to save it in another format, it only gives me the choice of jpg, nothing else. I'd prefer not to post it here but will PM you in the event you are able to assist. I could email it to you. PM coming.

Google IrfanView and download it. It's freeware, and probably the best value for software for doing things like changing formats, making jpgs smaller, etc.

MS Paint gives me the choices of BMP, GIF, TIFF and PNG, all formats it can't be. It needs to be PDF, AI, EPS or Word plain text only. I'll try IrfanView later.

You can send it to me but I don't want to hear about your reproduction...

PM me your email.

Download and install PrimoPDF, PDF995, PDF Creator or something similar. It will install a printer driver that will convert anything to PDF. Simply go to Print, select any of them as the printer, and off you go!
