I'm not sure if this should be here, or in the Music section. But, here goes anyway,
I'm trying to scan a piece of sheet music and read it into Finale for editing using the SmartScan software that comes with Finale. I run a B&W scan set to 1 bit depth, 300 dpi. It scans to Preview, and in Preview it shows as being about 800KB in size. Then, when I save it out of Preview to my Desktop as a TIFF file, it suddenly becomes 7.2MB. How is that possible? How am I going from 800KB to 7.2MB?
Any insight will be appreciated.
Many thanks!
