Hi!
You don't have to open anything, since the 5th line from bottom is a
picture. Well, at least it looks like it when I open the original file in a
PDF viewer.
About the quality I'll have to investigate further, since my printer gets a
nasty error when I try to print on it. It I just send the pdf to it via lpr
program then it prints fine.
Best regards,
Gregor
