Hi Husman, A little piece of code to use an intermediate morph that has not a transparency background. When the morph is exported, the JPEG file is correct. |window m graph | window := ESExamples new kiviat2. graph := window model canvas imageForm asMorph. m := Morph new extent: graph extent; color: Color white. m addMorph: graph; position: 1@1. m imageForm writeJPEGfileNamed: 'test.jpg' We can probably do best Hope that can help you Olivier ;-) Le 16 juin 2013 à 09:49, Usman Bhatti a écrit :

Jpegs have background, so you will not go very further in this direction (if I understood well your problem ^^)
The thing is that I am using Artefact framework for PDF images and it uses JPEG plugin for embedding images. Earlier, I tried with exporting PNGs (that have a transparent background) but when importing these PNGs into pdf docs, the JPEGReader adds the colored background (black in my case).
Another solution would be to see if Artefact can allow embedding Forms in Pharo into PDF docs directly (currently it does not) or it can provide a plugin for PNG images.

I need to export JPEG images in Pharo to later import then in my PDF document. When I export JPEG files with Pharo, the background is black, which makes the exported image meaningless. To reproduce the problem, do the following in the latest moose image (the image can be obtained from here):
|window| window := ESExamples new kiviat2. window model canvas imageForm writeJPEGfileNamed: 'fileName.jpg'.
The file will be produced in the image folder. If someone could suggest how to make the background white or transparent, it'll be a great help.
