Peter, 

Yes to your second description of an image that can be used to make
derivatives for a variety of purposes.

Thanks,
Amy

Hi Amy

When you say master, are considering this an "Archive" type image (a 
file that can replace the original film if destroyed), or an image that

can be multi-purposed for offset press, web, analysis, research etc.?
