      Sean says jpegs are �lossy�; and I don�t even know what that means, but
      it doesn�t sound good.




Lossy is fine for photographs and bad for screen captures. Lossy means each time you save the file, some data, pixels, whatever, is forever lost. JPEGs have the ability to look worse than the other formats mentioned because of the lossy compression.

I would not start with JPEGs. I would not map JPEGs to PNGs.

I would use PNGs from the start.

But, what Bill said is correct, you can pass-through the JPEGs you have. Try it.

CMYK matters if you are printing color from a commercial press. If not, don't worry about it; just know that there is a lot to know about printing color and it can be an expensive learning curve for the nOOb.

Cheers,

Sean
