Expert: Glen Demers - 8/30/2008

Question
I am using AppleWorks 6.2 and Adobe Acrobat 5.0 to create PDFs on my Mac, system 9.2. When I insert a photo into AppleWorks, it looks super clear on screen. When I make a PDF of the document, the photo looks much worse. Is there a setting on the Adobe Acrobat to make sure the photos come out as nice as the original? I looked for dots per square inch but coudn't find it. Thanks!


Answer
Hi David,

In Distiller make sure you have the press or print joboptions selected. You can also go to settings in Distiller and under the compression tab uncheck all the downsample options, this will leave your images untouched but the pdf's may be larger.
Hope this helps,
