Re: [APML] Photoshop conversion to jpeg

[Alan Voetsch <alanv12952@yahoo.com>]

Hey Geoff,

I'm just not sure what the final display type is going to be on these.
Our local club president wanted me to put some of my work on CDs for
his presntation on Astronomy day. Well, the files I gave him were so
huge that it messed up his program. So now I want to try to reduce the
sizes while still preserving as much as possible. Web display is not
the intent with these and I'm not sure if that makes much difference.
But I do know that I know so little about this stuff that it's better
to ask others with more hands on experience.

Thanks,
Alan
