-> OK, you got a point there. Of course, the images look differently
depending on the size/resolution of the screen.

That does not seem to be a "dots per inch problem" because all images then
should vary in size by the same factor, right? For example, the book about
Subversion (also using docbook), found here:

svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.1/svn-book.pdf

seems to have the same problem. All images look slightly blurry due to the
(probably undesired) scaling.
