I've read that the stair-step method can be destructive. It introduces more opportunity for error. My system has no problems with the 144 megabyte files (although it's only a G4, dual 1.25), so that hasn't really entered into my thinking. I do use a fast and large scratch disk. That seems to be

Thanks Godfrey, I've got Fraser's book & you guys were spot on in reccommending it. My just purchased CS2 has ACR 2.4. Is there a significant difference, with ACR 3.2 as far as the *istD is concerned. Kenneth Waller - Original Message - From: "Godfrey DiGiorgi" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
