Title: Re: [PRODIG] Tiffs and JPEG's... and EPS

Giles,

If a file has paths saved in it, then they can be imported into programs such as Illustrator and Quark, helping with the design process. Say a retoucher has to cut a girl out and place her against a background the paths can be saved, and then used by the designers for text/ whatever to be put around her....
