I am still trying to get my head around the JPEG colour depth thing. Anders (I believe) mentioned that a Jpeg is 8 bit per colour, for a total of 24 bit colour.
I can do the math, and can see that this should be very good colour depth (256x256x256=16777216). My question however is, since it is still 8 bit per colour, is the Jpeg file still really limited in fine colour delineation because it is limited to 256 discreet shades per primary colour? My reason for asking is that what I see coming off my digital printer at work has obviously inferior colour depth to the work coming off the optical printer. Thanks William Robb
