Re: Improve PDF output quality

[Owen Lucas]

Is this just the standard problem every one has with PDF's first off?
For me I did this to get good pdf fonts
in lyx under documents
set font to roman
set encoding to standard
change the file
usr/share/texmf/dvips/config (as
a root) and change in file updmap lines from
type1_default=false
#type1_default=true
to
#type1_default=false
type1_default=true
and run ./updmap.
and put
\usepackage{ae,aecompl}
in the preamble
and you fonts should look cool

As long as you don't even give a hint which method you use to
produce PDF and why all of the methods Google suggests when asked
for 'PDF LaTeX quality' failed I doubt you will get much help.

OK, I supposed everyone has the same methods ;-)

--> export as PDF
--> export as PDF (pdflatex)
--> export as PDF (dvipdfm)
I already tried with exporting as PS and then convert it
under GSview to PDF, but it has the same (miserable) effect.
I suspect the dvipdfm method produces the best output.
However, I'm not quite sure
