Dwaynes Photo out of Parsons, Kansas will burn a CD at time of slide
development. I scan my own slides so I can't attest to the quality of
the digital side. Fuji mailers are processed by Dwaynes, and I have
been satisfied with the film side of the process.

I am assuming they are doing jpeg files and I don't know what scanning
DPI they are using. A 3200 DPI with a TIF output is around 39 meg for a
35mm frame. Dwaynes says a high res scan results in a 6.5MB file.
That is why I assume jpeg and would be guessing at their scan rate.
