Hi :)
Do printers usually use the CMYK system? (Cyna (blue), Magenta (red), Yellow 
and blacK) rather than RGB?  

Is it going to be possible to get some people involved from the teacher's books 
project?  I think the main problem of swapping the screen-shots is time.  The 
screen-shots were carefully done in Ubuntu but i think any other Gnu&Linux 
distro would be fine.  
Regards from
Tom :)

If 500 copies are going to be printed, I assume that it will be on a
traditional printing press. When it comes to printing this way, high
resolution photos usually have to be scaled back to 192 or even 72
dpi. It all depends on the screen of the printer. If you take an image
that is 300 dpi and print it on a press that is only capable of 150
dpi, the image will be twice as large as the original.

It is best to get the specs of the printer before trying to get high
resolution graphics. A more practical question is, are the graphics
saved in such a way to support the three color separation that is used
in printing presses. This can probably be managed by importing the
original LibO documents into InDesign or some other layout program.
