Thread Name: Tech: photo format change?
Subject: RE: Tech: photo format change?
General rule-of-thumb: when dealing with digital photo formats, JPEGs are for screen presentation, (or web and e-mail application) while larger, lossless bitmap formats like .bmp and .tif are for printing purposes (ditto for things like Corel and Photoshop formats, which also save mask and layer information--and even watermarks--created within the software; that's why those formats are so proprietory).
