Hi Pete, If you choose File... Save Image and (after adjusting parameters if you want) click "Save As," the image will be redrawn at the requested resolution. When that is done, another dialog for saving the image file will appear. On this second dialog, there are several choices for file type, including JPEG and TIFF. See the Save Image man page: http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/print.html A second way is to use the "copy" command with the keyword for the desired format, as described in the man page: http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/copy.html However, if you already got that far and still had trouble, let us know in more detail what happened. There is also a tutorial on making images for publication: http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/tutorials/ frameimages.html Thanks, Elaine On Nov 12, 2005, at 7:34 PM, Panizzi, Peter wrote:

Hi Pete, If you are using Windows, there was a bug in there for a while where you could not save non-PNG images successfully. If that's happening for you, you should download the 1.2184 release which includes a fix for that. --Eric Eric Pettersen UCSF Computer Graphics Lab pett@cgl.ucsf.edu http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu On Nov 12, 2005, at 7:34 PM, Panizzi, Peter wrote:
