Digital BW, The Print

Peter,

 

I think the misunderstanding may be that you are referring to TIF files and
Alan was talking about PSD files.  They act differently.  I just confirmed
this with my own files.  I've been experimenting with QTR and have some
images in both TIF and PSD formats.  I used the same image and added an
adjustment layer using both formats.  The TIF file did increase in size
almost 3 times, but the PSD file stayed the same size.  I used the same
procedure and adjustment layer on both file formats.

Alan and Tyler,

Thanks for the replies. I am still befuddled by this. On most of my 
files (all tiffs) when I add an adjustment layer it increases the 
file size by about 3x. I am not using masks on these file. If I 
delete the mask from the channels tab, the file size goes down a bit, 
but not to the original file size. Every once and a while I'll try it 
on a different file and it works fine. This is using the exact same 
procedure. I have tried using the adjustment layer icon on the layer 
tab and the add layer from the menu. No difference. I'm sure I am 
just doing something stupid, but can't figure out what.

Thanks again for any help.

Peter
