Isn't that what I said? If you open and save .jpg files you lose data,
albeit only a small amount.

Ah! I see it now! Don't know how I could have missed that, with the
small traffic on this list and all. LOL!
Thank you!

Depends on what the file will be doing. JPG files are lossy files, so they
lose some detail every time they're opened and then saved. Their benefit is
small file sizes (hence why they're almost the standard in digital cameras).
TIFF are lossless files, which retain their total information even

Small correction, TIFF is actually a container file (basically like a
filing cabinet). The images containted within the file can actually
be lossless _OR_ lossy. Please reference:

I would think the important thing is check the saved copy to see that you
have not lost any detail. You can usually reduce the size of a JPG file
dramatically without losing anything important, you can always archive a
higher resolution

According to one of the training videos you should use either .bmp or .tiff
files. The reasosn is that .jpg files loose data and quality if you edit
them.
