A desktop publishing application from Microsoft that focuses on page layout and graphic design.
Publisher does not provide a setting to change the default file format used by Save as Picture. Each time Save as Picture is used, the desired format (for example, JPEG/JPG instead of PNG) must be selected manually in the Save as type list.
To save as JPEG when needed:
- Right-click the picture.
- Select Save as Picture.
- In Save as type, choose JPEG.
- Choose the file name and location, then select Save.
There is no documented way to make JPEG the permanent default instead of PNG.
