Description
Version 4.7.0 removed the possibility to save a scan as a jpeg: scans can now only be saved as a PDF. However, there are several situations where a jpeg would be preferable to a PDF for a single scan (e.g., portability/compatibility, thumbnails and previews in Nextcloud). And while images can theoretically be extracted from the PDF, this is not that straightforward and cannot be done inside Nextcloud afaik

The issue does not name a file, test, or entry point. Start by tracing the iOS scan-saving flow and identify how single scans are currently exported as PDFs. Done means a single scan can again be saved as a JPEG, while the existing PDF option remains available.
