jpg isn't a real file format-it is a COMPRESSION file-everytime (including the 
first time) you save that file as jpg-it has thrown away detail. And every time 
after that you open and view, and close again, it has thrown away more detail. 
PDF is a better file for transmitting images around, but I don't think you can 
bring pdf into DS. EPS would be the best one-all detail is saved but again, I 
can't keep track of what DS opens. I do all my artwork in Mac freehand, save on 
a thumb drive as eps, pdf, jpg, ai, everything-and just go in from DS until it 
'sees' one but I can't see the file extension in DS so I don't know which one 
is really working! But I also save on the mac in the full size I want in DS and 
that's how it opens it up.
