Screenshot Captor / Re: TIFF file size question

« on: April 01, 2009, 04:47 PM »

To be honest I do not think that Screenshot Captor really saves the files as TIFF-files. Some program-error?
When Isave in Photoshop it's with color depth = 8 bits..

Screenshot Captor / TIFF file size question

« on: April 01, 2009, 03:55 PM »

Hi,

Just downloaded Screenshot Captor for a try. My screen is 1280 x 800 pixels. I want to capture a picture from Google Map. In the preference I use colot depth 8 bit. I save the capture as a TIFF file. How can it be that when doing that I only have filesizes about 130-210 (they vary)?? I would expect the files to be much bigger given the fact that they are (loseless) TIFF-files?
If I load such a TIFF-file made by Screenshot Captor int Photoshop and save it as a TIFF-file it gets a size arounf 3 MBytes!
Can somebody clarify this issue for me?

Thanks a lot
Lars
