I just want to jump in here regarding lossy compression, since concern has
been mentioned about it several times recently on this forum. In recent
issues of Seybold, compression techniques have been discussed at length.
Standard JPEG, while lossy, results in almost utterly indistinguishable
loss of actual image quality, as demonstrated by 4-color prints of original
and JPEGed files. In fact, to my eye (tho' this had to be wrong) the
compressed one looked a little better, here and there. As a bit of
background, I've been an artist for 30+ years, work with computer graphics
people at work, have a good eye and sit on the right hand of God <g>. Hope
that imparts a bit of useful info.
