Re: filmscanners: (anti)compression?

OK, thanks, I found it.  The dialog box only appears after you kick off the 
save and I didn't take it that far when I was doing my testing.  I've seen 
the dialog box before and always ignored the LZW checkbox as I didn't thing 
that it was lossless and would offer me any thing.  My question wasn't a 
stupid one, I guess, but the operator was!  Thanks.

By the way, my 113.1 mb file went to 36.8 mb with LZW.
