+<u><font color="#009900">Supported output formats:</font></u></h3>
+
+<blockquote>You can select the output format by the filename extension
+(menu = "by ext") or by selecting the file format in the menu. Possible
+are: <i>pnm, png, ps, jpeg, raw </i>and<i> tiff.</i></blockquote>
+
+<blockquote><i>Pnm</i> and <i>ps</i> (and raw) are always available. The
+other formats are only available if necessary libraries are present (at
+compilation time AND while xsane is executed). For <i>png</i> you need
+libpng and libz, for <i>jpeg</i> you need jpeglib, for <i>tiff</i> you
+need libtiff.</blockquote>
+
+<blockquote>The <i>raw</i> format is a 16 bit format comparable to 16 bit
+binary <i>pnm</i> format that is not defined, for <i>pnm</i> the 16 bit
+format only is defined as ascii mode which generates huge and slow files.</blockquote>
+
+<blockquote><b>The supported output formats depend on the bit depth of
+the scanned image:</b>
