MACINTOSH FTP INSTRUCTION PAGE

Studios and Photographers wishing to electronically transmit their files to Central Camera for printing will find FTP very fast. If you do not have an FTP account with central camera, simply email us and we will create one for you.

Select the Photo files you wish processed. These may be JPG, TIF, or PSD files. Place or copy them into a folder. Next you will compress the entire folder. This will make one large file of the entire folder contents. In addition it provides a sort of safety wrapper on the files to protect them from corruption as they move across servers through the internet.
