Personaly I use ARJ, but ZIP, LHA, ARC, etc are all OK. Depending on the file format, you can get between 85% and 1% compression. Alternativly get a Jaz or Zip drive (removable media, stores *lots* more than floppies) or a CD writer. >I would be dealing mostly with slide show and printed documents. >What would be the reason for say going exclusively with JPEGs or CDR >files. Personal preference: if you add a JPG to a CDR file then the CDR file increases in size by the origional JPG size. >Can the various graphics sources be reorganized to create a >single source for both ease of access and possible disk space savings? Yes you can put them all into a single resource; there are several packages like that, the one I know of came with my scanner (Paperport). No it will not save disk space, the only option is to archive the files not in use. > >Thanks in advance > >tom Glad to be of service Gadget gadget2020@hotmail.com
