Re: Blurb and B&W

That doesn't make any sense - PNG format makes a difference more so in VECTOR art rather than in RASTER (bitmap/pixel) art when compared to JPEG. Something is going on at BLURBs processing end or with their workflow parameter preferences. Does BLURB accept TIF format with LZW compression?
