[gradsusr] Cannot output in jpg or gif

[Stephen McMillan]

Jason,

The GrADS documentation (
http://cola.gmu.edu/grads/gadoc/gradcomdgxprint.html) states the JPG and
GIF options are not supported by the Cairo library.  Printim is an alias
for gxprint.  PNG is now the only supported image format, but you might
consider one of the vector graphic options.  You could also try using
ImageMagick to convert to JPG or GIF.  Perhaps another GrADS user can
assist, since I have no experience with that.
