Size Really Does Matter: Imaging Software Chimes In
Different imaging software treats size differently—and size does matter in this case. Some programs throw file size efficiency out the window and leave you with programs in the megabytes (MB) that should be in the kilobytes (KB). Why does size matter? The larger the picture, the slower your computer will run, the less space you have for other important stuff, and the harder it is to transfer and share with others. So when deciding what imaging software to make your own, read the reviews and make sure they make the most of your hard disk space by keeping it small.
