i'm currently saving tiffs, a3 sized pages with portfolio images dropped in, flattened and saved... why would each file i save be identical in size...52.7mb

that cant be right can it?

Seems strange, though did you use a tiff lossless compression option? Does each image have the same resolution?

Are you sure they're exactly the same size, i.e. if you're using windows, right click the file, and check under properties for the size in bytes - there may be small differences between the files which are then being rounded to 52.7 mb

it was lossless, that might be it

if they're all the same res and you're not using compression, you'd expect that, just like a bitmap.

If all your page sizes are A3 and resolution is the same for each, then it's logical that your file size will be the same for each file.

after a nights sleep its all clear now, no compression equals standard file size, zipped the tiffs and it made sense.
