   Currently there is only BMP and TIF and both create images with large files sizes.

For non-printing purposes JPGs would be the way to go.

	Hi, After giving it some thoughts, there is a way to do so using the API - ISnapShot2 have a “Format” property on it that allows for JPEG compression on the snapshots: From the Programmer’s Guide: Format [in, out] BSTR – A string defining the format and compression of the image file. Use ”BMP” for a windows bitmap file, or “JPeg75" for a 75% JPEG image. Best regards, Yaniv
