Ken,
Thanks for the info. I'm using CS2 and see the same dialog box. I guess my
questions essentially boil down to the understanding the best settings to
use in the CS2 dialog box. Obviously, 2048x3072 is the best resolution,
since it's the highest. But what about 8 vs 16 bits/channel?

No. Not a chance. DNG is used widely and is available to all.

All,
I retrieved some old Kodak PhotoCDs with scans that I'd like to add to my
Adobe Lightroom database. Turns out Lightroom doesn't recognize .pcd files.
Also, PhotoCD seems like it's a dead format. S I need to convert
them to a non-dead format.

Haven't done much with PCD files ever, but I'd bring them into
Photoshop, set them to be Adobe RGB or ProPhoto RGB (16bit) and output
them as original TIFF 16bit files with ZIP compression. I've found
when doing this, if the original files do not have a color profile in
them, I assign
Godfrey, Ken,
Thanks for the tips. PhotoCD is one of those formats that was meant to be
standard, but not really open. I think that Kodak charged pretty hefty
licensing fees to hardware and software makers to use it.
Funny thing is, I have no real idea whether the original data is 8 bit or
compete with slide
projectors, never did get the popularity they hoped for.

PCD didn't have an openly published specification that three dozen
manufacturers of software have produced products to use at no charge.
I think there's just as much chance that DNG will go away as there is
that TIFF will go away. Adobe holds the licensing rights to both of
them. Both have
