Subject:Fuzzy screen capts. in PDF From:Stella Raposo <sraposo -at- POSITRON -dot- QC -dot- CA> Date:Thu, 26 Feb 1998 15:12:57 -0500
Hello,
I too have come across this problem of fuzzy text and screen captures while
viewing PDF files in Acrobat Exchange. Although, when I print the files,
the text looks fine, but the screen captures look just as bad as they do on
screen. (I'm using Windows NT 4.0, and the files were saved as GIFs and
WMFs.)
As someone on the list suggested, I deselected the Smooth Text and
Monochrome Images option, and that did appear to make the text clearer on
the screen. However, it did not change the appearance of my screen
captures. Does anyone out there have any solution?
Thank you in advance,
Stella Raposo
