I'd thought that it should be possible that scribus just write the correct resolution in the pdf, but I couldn't see how it finally worked. That's quite clever, hu ! OK. However, the bug is here, and I've to make it resample by Gimp, at the moment. Just a final question : when it's so, does scribus force the pdf renderrer to resample anyway ? Cause the printer agency with which I'm gonna work is not very -I don't know the word, but they don't say much-, and didn't show me they were technically very accomplished, so, as they want 300 dpi for this poster (that's even something strange, hu !), I've to be sure they will find the poster @ 300 dpi. > /Andreas-- View this message in context: > http://www.nabble.com/Transparent-tif-bug-and-related-thoughts-tf3326142.html#a9248753Sent > from the Scribus mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > _______________________________________________Scribus mailing listScribus at > nashi.altmuehlnet.dehttp://nashi.altmuehlnet.de/mailman/listinfo/scribus > -- ========================================================== Aur?lien Roux Doctorant (PhD) Laboratoire d'Acoustique de l'Universit? du Maine UMR CNRS 6613 Avenue Olivier Messiaen 72085 Le Mans Cedex 9 France -------------------- Tel (bureau) : (33) 02 43 83 35 89 Fax : (33) 02 43 83 35 20 Email : Aurelien.Roux at univ-lemans.fr -------------------- http://laum.univ-lemans.fr http://www.univ-lemans.fr __________________________________ / Chiffrez et signez vos messages \ | Utilisez les cl?s GnuPG | | | | HOWTO : | | http://vilya.org/gpg/gpg-intro.html | \ __________________________________ / ==================================
