One thing more: I save rendered files as TIFF without compression. The reasons are - there is no problem to manipulate with gigabyte files today, the RIP (program to print) must raster the vector format or decompress the JPG file. TIFF file is more fast. To add appropriate ICC profile is necessary too. Many RIPs are able to work with RGB images without any problem, but use the sRGB rather than Adobe RGB.
