Hi everyone,

I've opened an .eps file using Preview (it's a series of figures in silhouette), and two days ago managed to 'select' one of the silhouettes, and save it as a .png file with the dimensions 428 x 1341 (file size 86KB) i.e. it's full screen from top to bottom when I open it in Preview.

Tonight I tried to recreate that with one of the other silhouettes from the .eps file, and no matter what I try, whenever I 'Save' or 'Save As' as a .png, it scales it back down to 104 x 200. My original also saved with a "Generic RGB profile" and an Alpha channel (which I need because I'm using them as graphics in Apple Motion), whereas tonight's attempt has an "Adobe RGB (1998)" colour profile, and no Alpha channel!

What on Earth am I doing differently tonight from two nights ago?!

I'm really hoping someone can help me before I go mad!

Thanks a lot,

Chatto
