I did some searching for a "print to jpg" utility....
You might take a look at PDF Creator..
http://www.pdfforge.org/products/pdfcreator
in addition to PDF files, it can "print" to PNG, JPG, TIFF, BMP PCX, etc.
formats
I just downloaded it and tried it... it says it's not fully Vista
compatible, but it worked for me..
I was able to print a 6 gen pedigree chart to a jpg with no problem.
