Hi,You should use the IExport interface.See the "Create JPEG from ActiveView" code snippet to see how it's done.Regards,Nir#region"Create JPEG from ActiveView"
// ArcGIS Snippet Title:
// Create JPEG from ActiveView
//
// Long Description:
// Creates a .jpg (JPEG) file from IActiveView. Default values of 96 DPI are used for the image creation.

// ESRI.ArcGIS.Display
// ESRI.ArcGIS.Geometry
// ESRI.ArcGIS.Output
// ESRI.ArcGIS.System
//
// Intended ArcGIS Products for this snippet:
// ArcGIS Desktop (ArcEditor, ArcInfo, ArcView)
// ArcGIS Engine
// ArcGIS Server
//
// Applicable ArcGIS Product Versions:
// 9.2
// 9.3
//
// Required ArcGIS Extensions:
// (NONE)
