Just a theoretical question, because I understand the delay in taking this approach would probably make it impractical - would it be possible to do the following:
1) open a magnified clone of a stack to like 10 times its width, and 10 times its height, with all the components, characters, etc., also enlarged and kept perfectly proportional 2) make sure the enlarged version of the stack is opened out of the screen viewing area 3) take a snapshot of that enlarged stack 4) then print that stack, with a 10 to 1 reduction in print proportion That would result in fairly high resolution - but I am not sure that a screen version of a font, even enlarged to give it more pixels for higher definition, would actually look as good as a printed version of a font. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Chipp Walters Sent: Friday, January 07, 2005 4:23 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; How to use Revolution Subject: Re: More on Windows printing...

Often, the stack is opened 'off screen' and the user never even sees it while it's being printed. This is a great way to add resolution to images while printing. --Chipp _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
