I am able to print a movieclip, and also print it to a PDF therefore saving it to file…but I would like to be able to save to a JPG so that it can be sent through e-mail…I know that PDF can be sent, but its not as convenient as a JPG where anyone can save a JPG but you need the proper app to print to PDF…is it possible to save to JPG directly from flash? I have seen something about PHP…but that seemed to be fairly processor intensive? Am I wrong about that? Whats the best way, if any, to do this?
