I’m running Windows 2000 professional and Photoshop 7.0.1.

I take digital images and save them as hi-res tiffs. When I want to save a file down to a jpg (file/save as/JPEG) the .tif extension is not replaced. the new file becomes FILENAME.tif.jpg. – I have also tried using the As a copy option.

How can I correct this? Its particularly a problem when running batches.

….that is just the name. The file is a JPG. When you save the file, remove the ".tif" from the filename – or remae it later. You know when you save a TIF to a JPG, you are losing precious information. Why are you doing that?

yup. an annoying glitch in 7.01. i was never able to solve it. it went away when i reformatted. so it was something I had installed. resetting prefs wouldn’t do it. looked in all the obvious places in the registry. just remember to delete the extra extention from the file name box when saving.
