So it does. I have two two by four footers on wheeled stands so I can bring them to the computer for labeling. They are narrow enough not to bother the back too much bending over. Plus the color and intensity is to standards. Editing film is an art and laying similars out together and comparing one by one, throwing out the least at each pass until you have the final is tedious, but worth the effort. Those get the little round stick-on colored dots (yes, red!) on upper right corner. Amazing what this does for art directors who are busy. They select what you selected. donal - -- Donal Philby San Diego http://www.donalphilby.com
