I don't know why this is but the differences are pretty easy to measure if you want to look at relative levels. If you open the two images to be measured in PS you can use the Eyedropper Tool to report the level of any colour in the Info Palette, just look at the K factor. WRT to the differences between conversions I'm not sure if there are inherent differences in the processes or if it's related to colour space, gamma and conversion options in the colour settings. Something to ponder but not too much :-) Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://members.ozemail.com.au/~distudio/publications/ Pentax user since 1986, PDMLer since 1998
