I use Pro-Pack all the time, and if you have P5 (latest version) you can copy some of the P5 files into Pro-Pack to speed up its performance in several ways. I posted a thread about this a while back.

Also, you can convert tif files to jpg and then have your Pzz files use them instead, getting GREAT savings in disk space. I just finished today converting old PP2 files that use tif (HUGE TIF's) so that they use jpg's. The tif's took up around 200MB, while the new jpg set is around 10-15MB.
I used a batch conversion of the tifs to jpg, and then used a text editor to batch re-assign the tif references to jpg.
I also did this with some Pz3's, saving them as Pzz's and
getting lots of space savings...
