output quality from .ps and .pdf poor

[Redvers Davies]

Hi,

        I have checked through the various FAQ's and the archive but
as yet have been unable to find an answer to this question.

        The problem that I have is that the output to pdf is "furry".
Text in a dvi is sharp and perfect.  The postscript is slightly furry
and the pdf is so furry its almost unreadable.

        If anyone could give me some ideas as to where to start looking
I would appreciate it.

Regards,


Red
