Alberto,

This isn't really the most appropriate group for your question.

56K is the memory size required to hold a picture 160 x 120 pixels x
24-bit colour (57600 bytes). This is the typical size of the thumbnail in
a JPEG image, so either you are choosing to view the thumbnail, or the
main part of the JPEG is corrupt and PP is doing the best it can. Try
opening the image in IrfanView instead.
