Hi :) Are the screen-shots stored somewhere else and then reduced for the books? If we can access the originals then it might be easier to replace them?
In many cultures it is impolite to criticise at all but in English and American culture you have to criticise quite rudely before anyone takes any notice. I think some of us are unclear whether you are saying that 1. there definitely is a problem but you are naturally being polite and avoiding saying so or 2. you have a vague feeling there might be a problem or 3. you don't think there is a problem but want to be prepared just in case there is one. The copyright license of the books is a special one that allows modification and re-licensing. I think that if you do make changes, such as replacing the images then the new licence has to be the same type of license as the old one. If you require it then it might be reasonably easy for David to set-up a new area for your project. Normally that is done for translations but i am fairly sure it could be done for your teacher's guides. That way you could work at getting higher resolution images for the screen-shots. Some people here might help with it and/or people involved with the teacher's guides locally? I think on TDF lists you can happily be quite rude and say exactly what you need. We are all friends even those of us that appear to argue and disagree all the time.

The National Institute of Education, Sri Lanka is going to print 500 books to distribute about their staff during up coming LibreOffice training. but we need to check whether the resolution is enough for the printing purpose.
