    Since as of Photoshop CS (I think) you can now compose all PSD’s at 720×486 non Square pix, is that the preferred method folks use when creating PS elements for import into AE that will be used in D1 720×486 compositions and renders? There is always talk about mixing square and non square and what trade offs image quailty-wise one might suffer. Am I missing something basic here, or should one just work with D1 all the way though if that is your intended output from AE? CS even has a D1 preset for it… what am forgetting here?

    Thanks for any thoughts!

    Unless mixing in flash or AI

    Stay non square all the way through if delivering to a NS format

    Richard,

    Thanks for the reply. Perhaps another dumb question, but I assume Illustrator is only outputting Square? In that case working square would be the way to go?
