this...
tell application "Adobe Photoshop 7.0"
set pictSave to {class:PICT file save options, compression:low quality
JPEG, embed color profile:false, resolution:thirty two, save alpha
channels:false}
save current document in file "titan:Users:paul:Desktop:test" as PICT
file with options pictSave appending no extension with replace
end tell
... saves a file identical to a manual save OMM. Perhaps you have alpha
channels you weren't ditching? The default setting for Alpha channels
isn't indicated in the dictionary. Just a guess really.
