A resolution of 180 works better, thanks.
Jan,
I did however notice that the extra processing time to increase the
resolution of the image and then scale it back is pretty significant.
Granted you get a little better image, is it worth the long build
times? The output device for html after all is only 100 dpi at best,
whereas the hard copy output is 300+ dpi. In other words I use HTML
documentation as a quick reference and as long as it is of reasonable
quality it is acceptable. A printed document, on the other hand, I
use for more comprehensive learning and my expectations are much
higher. BTW the LaTeX documents are beautiful!
Cheers,
Jeff
