Java API to Render MSG to JPEG
Export MSG to JPEG by using on premise Java API without using any third party dependencies
How to Render MSG to JPEG Using Java
Email conversion is a powerful feature that Java developers can integrate within any Java J2SE, J2EE, J2ME applications via Aspose.Total for Java . By using two APIs within the package you can convert Email MSG to JPEG without any third party dependencies. Firstly, you can use Email Manipulation API Aspose.Email for Java to convert MSG file format to HTML. Secondly, you can render HTML to JPEG by using Document Processing API Aspose.Words for Java .MSG to JPEG Conversion on Java
- Open MSG file using MailMessage class
- Convert MSG to HTML by using save method
- Load HTML by using Document class
- Save the document to JPEG format using save method and set JPEG as SaveFormat
Get Started with Java File Format APIs
You can easily use Aspose.Total for Java directly from a Maven based project and include Aspose.Words for Java and Aspose.Email for Java in your pom.xml.
Alternatively, you can get a ZIP file from downloads .
Java Code for MSG to JPEG Rendering
MailMessage message = MailMessage.load("sourceFile.msg");
// save MSG as a HTML
message.save("HtmlOutput.html", SaveOptions.getDefaultHtml());
// load HTML with an instance of Document
Document document = new Document("HtmlOutput.html");
// call save method while passing SaveFormat.JPEG
document.save("output.jpeg", SaveFormat.JPEG);

What is MSG File Format?
MSG is a file format used by Microsoft Outlook to store individual email messages. MSG stands for “Outlook Message Format”. It contains all the components of an email, including the sender, recipient, subject, message body, attachments, and other metadata.
MSG files are proprietary to Microsoft Outlook and are commonly used for archiving or transferring email messages. They can be created when users save individual emails from their mailbox or when messages are exported or backed up from Outlook.
The MSG format preserves the original formatting and properties of the email, allowing it to be viewed and accessed in the same way as it was in the Outlook client. This includes retaining rich text formatting, hyperlinks, embedded images, and attachments.
MSG files can be opened and viewed directly in Microsoft Outlook. They can also be opened by other email clients that support the MSG format or by specialized software designed for MSG file handling. Additionally, MSG files can be converted to other formats, such as EML (Email Message Format), for compatibility with different email clients.
One notable feature of MSG files is the ability to store email attachments within the file itself. This ensures that all related content is kept together and can be easily accessed. It also simplifies the process of sharing or archiving emails with their attachments intact.
What is JPEG File Format?
JPEG, short for Joint Photographic Experts Group, is a widely adopted standard for compressing photographic images. Developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), JPEG employs a lossy compression algorithm to reduce the file size of images. During compression, certain image data is discarded, allowing for smaller file sizes. The extent of data loss can be adjusted, enabling users to balance file size and image quality according to their requirements.
As a highly popular format, JPEG finds extensive usage in storing and sharing photos. It is widely supported by various image editing software and web publishing platforms. Its compatibility makes it easy for users to work with JPEG files across different applications and platforms.
One of the key advantages of JPEG is its ability to significantly reduce file sizes while maintaining acceptable image quality. This makes it ideal for web-based image sharing, where smaller file sizes enable faster uploading and downloading. JPEG compression achieves higher levels of compression by eliminating redundant image information and exploiting the limitations of human visual perception. While this results in a loss of some image details, the trade-off between file size and image quality can be adjusted to suit specific needs.
