RE: catalina27-talk: Technote Feedback. PDf or Pages

[Phil Agur]

I think the blurriness comes from failing to get a slightly higher resolution PDF to fit and cutting the source images again to get the file that fit.   So a resize to 25% of a 30% GIF versus a direct resize of a large JPEG output to the 25% GIF. I expect we can have the same quality out of the PDf.    Phil Agur                    s/v Wing Tip Commodore,             Call Sign WCW3485 IC27/270A                   MMSI 366901790 www.catalina27.org      Vessel Doc# 1039809 -----Original Message----- From: catalina27-talk@memberclicks.com [mailto:catalina27-talk@memberclicks.com] On Behalf Of Lori T Sent: Wednesday, July 12, 2006 7:35 AM To: catalina27-talk@memberclicks.com Subject: RE: catalina27-talk: Technote Feedback. PDf or Pages   The pdf is harder to read, but much easier to scroll through and the better format in the long run I think. What causes the blurriness as opposed to the gif file?   I have a T1 at work here so its a snap to d/l or read, but  I don't even attempt to d/l pdf files with my dial up at home.   Lori T #4244 Summer Place Barnegat Bay, NJ   Mark Tamblyn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Phil:   The file is readable, a little less than perfect but that is the way any scanned PDF file looks.

PDf or Pages   I’ve posted a PDF for the Mainsheet ’83 Summer issue.   The PDF format is faster for me as it allows a single file to be uploaded and linked. It took an hour to prep and link the first issue as pages. I can also use a drag and drop to reorder pages if they come out mixed up. It also makes the pages easier to printout for use at the boat on your end.   The downside is your download time.   I tried and failed to bump the resolution up a bit hitting a file size cap, so the PDF is big.   Please let me know if you think the PDF is too unwieldy. 90 issues to go.   Phil Agur                    s/v Wing Tip Commodore,             Call Sign WCW3485 IC27/270A                   MMSI 366901790 www.catalina27.org      Vessel Doc# 1039809 -----Original Message----- From: catalina27-talk@memberclicks.com [mailto:catalina27-talk@memberclicks.com] On Behalf Of Phil Agur Sent: Monday, July 10, 2006 11:29 AM To: catalina27-talk@memberclicks.com Subject: catalina27-talk: Technote Feedback.   After talking with Tech Support about on-line storage they suggested we try a lower resolution image. I’ve created a single issue and placed it on-line.   Please take a look at the images and see it they are legible at the resolution you normally view at.   Thanks,   Phil Agur                    s/v Wing Tip Commodore,             Call Sign WCW3485 IC27/270A                   MMSI 366901790 www.catalina27.org      Vessel Doc# 1039809 -----Original Message----- From: catalina27-talk@memberclicks.com [mailto:catalina27-talk@memberclicks.com] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, July 08, 2006 10:39 AM To: catalina27-talk@memberclicks.com Subject: Re: catalina27-talk: I need a little Web feedback.   I get a Memberclicks error page both ways.     Do you Yahoo!?
