Hi Mac, Thanks for asking - it looks like the original TIFF file that I grabbed must have already been saved with lwz compression. So, I did the experiment again using a fresh scan of a different slide with the following results: TIFF: 56,264 kb TIFF with lzw compression: 35,364 kb JPG with Photoshop level 12: 18,453 kb So, in both this case and the previous one, the JPG with level 12 compression is ~ 1/2 the size of a TIFF with lzw compression. Thanks again for bringing my mistake to my attention, Johnny __________________________ Johnny Johnson Lilburn, GA mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe by mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], with 'unsubscribe filmscanners' or 'unsubscribe filmscanners_digest' (as appropriate) in the message title or body
