Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-5633:
-----------------------------------------
This is a difficult decision. You have to weigh different factors:
- dpi 0 best quality but sometimes very slow (transparencies)
- dpi 1200 usually the dpi of your printer, but rendering at 1200dpi will also
use lots of RAM, and will be slow if you have large shadings (gradients)
- dpi 300 is a acceptable quality for the untrained eye
- dpi 600 is a good compromise

> We use PDFBox from our java application to send documents to print to a
