Hey Dennis,

Which version of Photoshop are you using? If you're using CS4 or lower, I don't think you can save 16 bit images as a JPEG, which may be your issue.

If you go to Image > Mode then select 8 Bits/Channel you'll get your JPEG save option back :)

Hope this helps for future reference!

You might be able to do a conversion on this site.

I had many successes in various types of file format conversion in the past. Good luck.

It doesn't say JPEG its only PSD, PSB, TIFF, Portable Bitmap, EXR, and HDR only.
