I’ve been scanning and working with graphics for about 8 years now, and always kept my documents in uncompressed files for
storage.
However, I’ve recently volunteered to do a possibly VERY large order of photos/negatives, and in the interests of keeping costs
(and storage costs) down, I’m looking at possibly using high quality jpgs. I’ve got Photoshop 6, and if I save the jpg at max
quality (single pass), I see more than 1/2 reduction in the size over a tiff, with a negligable difference in the image. In
fact, in a slideshow (or closeup inspection) of the images, I really cannot see much difference at all. Is there something here
that I’m missing when considering using high-quality jpgs or tiffs?
Cheers!
