Has anyone tried this and then had their manuals professionally printed? We've had the same problem as Mark for quite some time. Our current setup (FrameMaker 6.0p405 with Adobe Acrobat 7.0.0) displays EPS quite poorly. Admittedly we're using CorelDraw 10.427 to generate the EPS from a native CorelDraw vector image; and we've always blamed CorelDraw's rendering for the poor display. With more manuals going out as PDF-only, the display quality has become more of a concern than ever before. But if the print quality suffers because of improvements to the display quality - we gain nothing by changing the way we do things. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Rebecca Downey -- rdowney at matrox.com Matrox Imaging -- Technical Writer
