Oh? When I save as a jpg in Photoshop, winders folx can't open them. I open it and save as in Jpegview, ad they can - but its file type is PICT. A jpg is not merely a jpg, it is some type of flavor...


File types have nothing to do with it. Most likely the jpg files you're saving in Photoshop are missing their extension.


A JPEG is NOT a PICT file. JPEG , Joint Photographic <something, Engineering, I think> Group is a standard for creating a lossy, compressed raster graphics file.

That JPEGView saves them with file type PICT is irrelevant; PC's don't care or know about resource forks, which is where that information is stored. PC's only know what a file is from it's extension.
