    Erm, pdf is Photoshops own format and EPS is for Illustrator and PDF is for Acrobat, all Adobe Products. Only one of them is used on the web as well.

    I use Photoshop because, it offers a better range of features.

    You're wrong. :) Photoshop used to be Bitmap, but now it does both. Illustrator is what you want for vectors really. Does Fireworks support graphics tablets?

    I know pdf is macromedia / adobes, as far as I knew the discussion wasn't targetting which formats were utilised on the web, the only ones i use are png, gif n Jpeg as a rule.
    PSD is photoshops own format, and PS seems to have president over acrobat opening PDFs.
    Yes its got lots of features:)

    Yeah, sorry if I seemed a bit rude :) It reads a bit rude anyway.

    If you have a choice Photoshop is always going to win hands down. It has far better support of Multi Cores and GPU's too, if you get Extended, which is a bit poor I admit those 'extras' should be standard considering the costs.
