Poor quality in ps and pdf

2000-08-03 Thread Gunnar Andersson

I want to use LyX to write technical documents. On screen everything
looks alright, but when i save as ps and pdf for printing and sharing,
the quality is no good.

When i choose File/view postscript AND choose State/antialias in gv the
quality improve, but i still cant get this quality saved.

I am using SuSE 6.4, LyX 1.1.4 og TeTeX 1.0.7-56. No special setup, but
straight from rpm.

Anyone experienced the same/found a solution?

Regards

Gunnar Andersson

It's hard to guess from your message what exactly is wrong with your
output, but it likely involves the fonts selected by default. You can
set up dvips to use Type 1 versions of the CM fonts in your teTeX
distribution. Also, IMHO, substituting standard PS fonts like Times or
Garamond further improves quality over the standard CM fonts, though you
may have to find a compatible math font. Provided that you have the .pfb
font files, you can use the OT1-encoded .tfm files in the teTeX
distribution or (better yet), fetch LY1 (texnansi) files for any font in
the Adobe Font Folio from www.yandy.com/ly1.htm.
