I suppose you could save in PhotoShop format, close the TIFF, then open the PhotoShop format to continue working. This would allow you to keep selecting Save without any dialog boxes. When finished, if you need a TIFF, your last step is to Save As and select TIFF format again. I dont know if this would involve two changes to the image data itself, with possible degradation, or just a change in the file format wrapped around the same image. I suspect the latter. >Also, if you import an EPS file and save the imported version >to another name, the original version stays open, rather than that >window receiving the new name. >Having to type in the name every time I want to save is a real pain, >especially since some of the formats, like TIFF, make you go through >seconday dialog boxes when you do "Save As...". Hmm. Same problem. Of course they can't simply replace your EPS with their new Photoshop file. But I agree the window name should change. Seems arbitrary. Same workaround as above. -- -- - Jim Prall - jimp%trigraph.uucp@csri.toronto.edu | Real triple-TLA quotes heard here: - Trigraph, Inc. | "So the CPU of the SLC is in the CRT"
