JPEG contour plot without IDL graphics window, can this be done? [message #66686]

So, typically is has been unnecessary for me to create anything other
than postscript files for my data output. Now, however, because
someone has asked for it, I need to figure out how to create jpeg
versions of hundreds of contour plots with superimposed maps and
colorbars.

So far, I have been able to figure out one method for creating the
jpegs, but it is much too slow considering the number of plots that
need to be created. For the current method, I crate my image in the x-
windows device, then use the following:

write_jpeg, filename, jpeg_file, tvrd(/true), /true

There must be a better way to handle this that does not require
opening a graphics window, copying the data from the window, then
outputting it to a jpeg, right? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
