This should be so easy – I have got to be missing something obvious. I am starting with 300 or 600 ppi TIFFs. I use Image>Image Size… to resize to 72 ppi and set the long side to 600 pixels. Transfer the image to ImageReady. In the Optimize tab in the Optimize palette, I set Format to JPEG and Quality to Maximum. Then File>Save Optimized as … to save the file. Comparing the original TIFF with the new JPEG, the JPEG’s colors look very dull. What am I doing wrong?
