"It seems like direct JPG output would be much quicker and give better quality
than 1st copying as TGA…."
Faster, yes.. Better.. no.. Exactly the same. When you move from the PAR
compressed format to any RGB format, there is no subsequent loss. In other
words, you could go from TGA to IFF to SGI to TIFF and back to TGA and there
would be no loss. The loss would come in as soon as you compress with JPEG.
