The following saves the active document as PNG. You can change the type to save it as.

// reference open doc
var doc = app.activeDocument;

opts.transparency = true;
opts.interlaced = false;
opts.quality = 100;
opts.includeProfile = false;
opts.format = SaveDocumentType.PNG; // Document Type

// save png file in same folder as open doc
activeDocument.exportDocument(doc.path, ExportType.SAVEFORWEB, opts);
