[NTG-context] Table resolution too low
I just created a PDF of a bookblock by using MKII to produce the .ps file
and Adobe Acrobat to create the PDF from it. When preflighting the PDF, all
the photos were found to be 300dpi or greater but the table created by the
following code was flagged at being only 150ppi. I don't see this as a
problem but is there a way to cause it to be 300dpi or greater to eliminate
the warning?
\placetable[here,force]{none}
{\starttable[|l|l|l|]
\HL
\VL \bf Player* \VL \bf Position \VL \bf Year Inducted \VL\SR
\HL
\VL Albert Exendine \VL End \VL 1970 \VL\SR

There's no reason why a table should be resolution dependend at all, consisting just of fonts and lines. But since you try to go via PS, there might be lowres pixel fonts (PK) involved. Please provide a complete minimal example and describe how and why you force ConTeXt to produce PS. Greetlings from Lake Constance!

Using Tex-Live MKII, I created the .ps with texexec --dvi TableExample
Needing a PDF/X-1a:2001 file, I created the PDF from the .ps file using
Adobe Acrobat Distiller 9
The warnings point to the lines in the table but not to the text.

Preflighting it doesn't seem to generate the image resolution warning.
Perhaps that is related to PDF/X-1a:2001.
So is it ok now ?

It seems to be but I'm such a novice using these tools that I may be
preflighting with the wrong options set. Knowing that the lower resolution on
the table doesn't matter much is consoling.
It's about time for some eggnog.
