// Open an existing MHTML file for reading
java.io.FileInputStream fileInputStream = new java.io.FileInputStream("sample.mht");

// Initialize the ImageSaveOptions with a custom page-size and background color
ImageSaveOptions options = new ImageSaveOptions(ImageFormat.Jpeg);
options.setBackgroundColor(Color.getGreen());
options.getPageSetup().setAnyPage(new Page());
options.getPageSetup().getAnyPage().setSize(new Size(Length.fromPixels(1000), Length.fromPixels(500)));

// Call the convertMHTML() method to convert MHTML to JPG
Converter.convertMHTML(fileInputStream, options, "sample-options.jpg");
