thank you so much for your reply, I have individual 50 figures, so I would like to save them separately.

figs = openfig('TheFigFile.fig');
for K = 1 : length(figs)
filename = 'figure_%02d.jpg';
saveas(figs(K), filename);
end

If they need to appear together in the same image, then save them as png or tif, read the png (or tif) and combine the images in an appropriate way, such as horzcat or vertcat or perhaps imagepatch. Then save that result into an appropriate file format.
Use png or tiff as the intermediate format so that you do not end up losing information twice from the JPEG lossy compression.

You can download a tool for converting a folder of .fig to .jpeg en masse here. Just make sure you have the correct MATLAB Runtime Compiler (license not required).

I posted that more than 6 years ago, and it had a mistake that was corrected later.
