How to Convert a Photo in Adobe to a JPG File
If you've downloaded or received a photo via email that is any file extension other than a JPG, you can convert it in Adobe Photoshop. Files saved with the JPG extension are ideal because they have a smaller file size than a TIF file, and they don't require a special program to open. You can accomplish changing any type of file into a JPG with a few clicks in Photoshop.
