I'm working with a graphics department who have MACs to convert a graphic
from MAC to PC format for me to put in a Word 97 document. When I look at
the graphic on their MACs and when they print it on their lovely color
printers, it's fantastic.
When they give it to me in a .jpg, it's blurry both on my screen and as
printed. I've asked for it in 256 colors, but when I check the colors in
Paint Shop Pro, it tells me there's over 13,000 in the first layer.
Anyone have any idea how to bridge the MAC/PC graphic divide? What exactly
should I be asking for from this graphic goddess?
Any assistance would be appreciated. TIA,
