Output Formats

Snapopa supports multiple output formats for different use cases.

Available Formats

Format	MIME Type	Use Case
`png`	`image/png`	High quality, transparency support
`jpeg`	`image/jpeg`	Smaller file size, photos
`webp`	`image/webp`	Modern format, best compression
`pdf`	`application/pdf`	Documents, printing

Best for screenshots with text, UI elements, or transparency.

{

  "format": "png"
}

Best for photos and when file size matters.
