<P>
&nbsp;&nbsp;In which format do you save your raw scans? I don't know a whole lot
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;about image formats. What I do know is that one would want quality,
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;so JPEGs are out. One doesn't want it to be encumbered by
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;proprietary formats, so GIFs are out. One wants the format to be
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;portable so that it can be used by all software. Are there other
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;considerations that I have neglected?
<BR>
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;xsane chooses PNM by default, vuescan chooses TIF. Which one should
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;I choose? Are there any references that discusses these issues?
<BR>
