[thelist] Re:[the list] Word doc to PDF: Graphics Fuzzy

[Andrew Wojtowski]

In Adobe Acrobat you can set the dpi of your graphics when they are
distilled to a pdf file. Acrobat defaults at 72dpi. I would recommend
bumping that up to atleast 150dpi.

On the other hand the compression of your jpgs might be set too low. You
can try recompressing your jpgs with less compression.
Hope this helps
