[filmscanners] RE: VueScan file size

["" <laurie@advancenet.net>]

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.

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?

TIA,
Tom
