Robert Thanks for the suggestion but had already tried that and it makes not a blind bit of difference. Very frustrating.
The nature of the fuzziness is, there is some text in a light font (ie thin lines) and this text shows shadowing. I feel that the clue to this is the difference in apparent sizes The natural print size for this image from PhotoPaint is only 30x30mm while the TQRImage (with autosize set True) is trying to print it at 120x120mm. It's when I have to reduce it's print size that I suspect the blurring is ocurring. Anybody??
