Hi All,
Here’s the deal. I deal with about 1000 images a week for a web site. I have to automate in PSCS typical tasks to get a 800 pixel tall image. I then optimise them in Fireworks ’cause it just works better. I get a great looking image that’s about 40k..perfect. I then switch back to PSCS and make thumbnails 200 pixels tall but now the thumbnails are 90-110k!
I always thought jpegs are compressed each time they are saved. What is it that PSCS is doing that takes a large image makes it smaller yet BIGGER?
BTW I’ve spent hours getting my workflow streamlined and it HAS to go through FW then back to PSCS.
Thanks,
Warren
