A note about resolution

When a Photo CD image is created, it’s recorded at five different levels of
resolution. The higher the resolution, the more information is recorded about
the image, and the sharper the image appears when displayed or printed at
larger sizes. However, high-resolution images take up a lot of memory—up to
18 MB of data for one photograph—which affects file size, as well as the
amount of time it takes to display or print an image.

It’s best to work with a resolution appropriate for your monitor or printer.
Some monitors and printers cannot display or print very high-resolution images.

For most work, a resolution of 768 x 512 pixels or smaller is suitable. For
detailed work or very high-quality reproductions, you may want to use a
higher resolution.

Make sure to open high-resolution images with application programs designed
to handle large image files. SimpleText cannot open very large files.

Sharing a CD-ROM disc over a network

You can “share” a CD-ROM disc with users of other computers using the file
sharing feature of your system software. If your disc has audio portions, you
will be able to hear the audio yourself, but other people on the network will
not. Likewise, you cannot hear the audio portions of discs you access over a
network.

IMPORTANT

If file sharing is on and you are having trouble ejecting a disc,

turn file sharing off in the Sharing Setup control panel in the Control Panels
folder, available through the Apple (K) menu.

For further information about file sharing, see the “Sharing Files” topic area
of Macintosh Guide (or Mac OS Guide), available in the Guide (h) menu.
