Hi, in PDFs that I have created using the `Maximum Image Resolution' option (<100dpi) I realize thin vertical bars of mostly black pixels at the rightmost column of some images.
Without that option, or with higher dpi numbers, the pixel column goes away. Whether the original image is a jpg or a tiff, or which compression method (lossy, zip, none) is used for pdf creation seems not to matter, so the black pixels likely get introduced during the resizing process. My images are quite big (2500pixels wide), so that there is a reduction factor of around 12. Perhaps this is too big. I can see this on Debian Etch with both scribus and scribus-ng (1.3.4dfsg-1), with xpdf, gv and Acrobat (on Windows). If it is helpful, I can provide a sample project (1.5MB, for v1.3.4). A picture showing how it looks like on screen can be found here (4KB): http://wmipf.in-berlin.de/blackpixels.jpg If I remember right I have seen such an effect also in an older Gimp version, or in a tool like `convert'. It would be nice if someone could point me to the module or library, where the size reduction is done -- perhaps it is a library scribus depends on that is not up to date on Debian. Regards, Michael
