ImageResizer to Change File Type

[mojoZHU]

Description of the new feature / enhancement

When Image Resizer resizes an "heic" photo, it saves it as the same file type. It would be more useful if the user could choose to save it as a jpg file. I use Image Resizer to change a photo's size for emailing other people. For compatibility, it would be better if the file could be changed to a jpg.

Scenario when this would be used?

Wanting to change the format of files when resizing to make it more compatible

Hello and thanks for your message. Sounds like issue #2686 to me. As far as I'm up-to-date on this, it's still out of intention for this app: resizing ≠ converting.
