Just guessing; but it may have something to do with the way VueScan and your OS read file sizes and count bits as well as what they add or do not add to the file size in terms of metadata overhead, etc. and effects of the file allocation system employed on the hard drive.
-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Thomas Maugham Sent: Saturday, November 22, 2003 1:28 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [filmscanners] VueScan file size I just scanned a negative and got the following information from VueScan: "5576 x 3669 pixels 4000 dpi 1.39 x 0.917 inch 92.1 mb". The size of the file on my hard drive is 119.885kb or about 119.9 mb. Why the discrepancy between what VueScan says the file size is versus the size on the hard drive?
