Mark -

Genuine Fractals is a lossless way to compress files that can be greatly 
enlarged later.  The information for it is here:
http://www.altamira-group.com/
It seems to work best on large files, but they all look better than just 
interpolating it later in Photoshop. There's also another program to do the 
same thing - Mr. Sid (?) - but it is much more expensive.
