This book is expensive (US$65-70) but if you are doing any serious work
with graphics, it is *well* worth the money. It tells you (clearly) more than
you
ever wanted to know about the various formats and flavours of graphics files,
and the included CD is full of useful data and shareware.
I recommend it highly.
