Bizarre how different shops work eh? Many of mine might have begun as a pdf,
but they have always come to me in .eps (most popular), then typical graphic
images after that.

But after it's already created and saved as 150dpi is saving it again as 300
gonna improve the quality?

No way can you make a picture from a Box Brownie reproduce like the same
scene taken with a Hasselblad 500CM.. Publisher would require mystical
powers to be able to do that..

Not if you save it from the image file, but to do that you'd have to import
the image file back into Publisher and save again.
If you save again direct from the original Publisher file, you will get a
higher quality.

No, but line drawings are vector and vectors will not distort until they are
converted to a bitmap, after that it is all down hill.

That's what I thought...it was sorta rhetorically axed...it just sounded
like what someone was saying a few posts back..maybe not this thread.

Brian,

It's called control. "Send me a pdf file." They oblige. But I'm not a
printer.
