RE: Graphics Quality Question

["Stuart Burnfield" <stuartb@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Dov -

I don't have Photoshop but I do have Canvas for Windows. It has
two Interpolation options: Bilinear (derive from colour values of adjacent
pixels) and Nearest Neighbour (same colour as an adjacent
pixel). Would you happen to know which of these is equivalent to
the Photoshop setting?

Canvas also has these options when saving as EPS:

   EPSF Type: [ EPS | DCS ]. Would DCS only be used when outputting
   colour separations from the Frame doc?

   Color Mode [ RGB | Black & White | Grayscale | CMYK ]. Is it
   correct that CMYK is usually better for print output and RGB
   is usually better for docs destined to be viewed on screen?

   Transparency Rendering: I assume this doesn't matter for screen
   shots as transparencies wouldn't normally be used?

   Embed Fonts: yes

Thanks

The only consistent and way to get screen prints into FrameMaker
(or any other GDI-type Windows application such as Microsoft Office
applications) such that resultant print output and PDF viewing and
printing is of high quality is via the EPS format from Photoshop
with the "interpolation" option enabled when doing the EPS export.
(Use the "binary" option; do NOT use the JPEG compression option!!)
