How about output to a PostScript driver and then using GhostScript to convert .ps to .jpg? GS is amazingly fast - I was really surprised when I tried it. Though, I wasn't printing to a .ps, I was generating a .ps file (which is also fast when done in VFP), simply because I needed a special image generated on-the-fly.
