Thats a typical flow, but the percentage of images that reach each step are 
smaller as you go along. Unless I have to send an image out it never gets to 
the 8 bit/channel step at all. If it has Photoshop layers in it, it may never 
get to the TIFF step, and if it doesn't get special retouching, it stays RAW.
