Hey all,

So I'm trying to edit a jpeg that is 300DPI @ 1024x769 in/px.

Anytime I try to do anything to it, even cropping it, my scratchdisk fills.

The Scratchdisk is on my main HD (yes I know :(). I have about 30GB available.

Problem: As soon as I edit the image, it fills all 30GB on my HD and gives the scratchdisk full warning. During this time, if I check my HD status, sure enough I only have 48KB of space left. As soon as I hit 'OK', it brings back my free space.

I've repaired permissions, nuked my preferences, purged the clipboard, reinstalled Acrobat. Any suggestions?

thanks,
~Luffy.
 
Nvm, I found it.

It was set to 1024in x 769in instead of px.

That is one big A$$ file. :eek:
