Unless you charge them for all of the digital processing!  Most clients 
have no idea what to do with a RAW digital file.  All of the time and 
knowledge spent converting that into something that is printable should be 
charged as a separate item just like film processing used to be.  Creative 
ways to list the charges are discussed on the ProPhoto lists.
