Save as command Tiff with LZW compression
« on: April 09, 2007, 10:18:08 PM »
I often save out Tiff files to upload via ftp to the papers server. I would love it if there could be compression applied. Is this possible? (I am using a mac with the latest OS). It saves a lot of time on uploads, and have had no complaints from editors when using LZW compression when creating Tiffs with Photoshop. Great product, getting ever better with each version!

Thanks

We have never activated it because of patent/copyright issues, but I think that there is no legal issue anymore.  We'll have to look into it first...
