I am using a Mac OS 10 with Photoshop 7. I’ve scanned slides using a Nikon scanner. When I attempt to save the image in Photoshop, I am given only three file formats from which to select. I don’t understand why this is the case. The formats I have to choose from include PSD, TIFF and RAW. Before now, and in other files I open in Photoshop, I am given a long list of file format options.

I’m highly unfamiliar with Photoshop. Can someone shed some light on whether this is a Photoshop issue or whether it is how the slide was scanned?

Thanks.

16 bits per channel maybe?

Amy,

Ed has the answer for you. Those are the only three formats that support 16-bit images. If you have to use a different file format, convert your images to 8-bit mode first.
