Hi Michel

Thank you for your reply.

Right after I loaded the tif file (32k), the Format Conversion dialog confirm it is Black and White and the resolution is 1632 X 2156.

Without any modification or image transform I saved the image, the file size is 10 time larger (430k) than the original.

Then I loaded the 430k tif file again, the Format Conversion dialog confirm it is Blank and White and the resolution is 1632 x 2156.

I planning to purchase your image library to create multi-page tif file for email, but the file size issue need to be resolved.

Here is some more information about the tif file I created.

I use a component from TurboPower Software to generate the original tif image file then I examined the property of this tif image file with the Imaging program come with Windows 98, it is Black and White with PackBits compression.

I use the same Imaging program to examined the property of the tif file saved by the Demo program, it is Black and White but there is no compression.

I hope the information is helpful.Thanks in advance.

James
