The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Carla's message had the good questions. In addition, there's a
difference in how images are displayed and how they print.
For example, if you have an .eps file with a bitmap preview
image, the preview image will look jaggy on screen, but the
eps file will print sharp and clear.

I am new to this list but have been impressed with the caliber
of people who post to this list. I have a question that I would
like to ask:
I am one of two tech writers working on software documentation
manuals for a small company. Our dilemma has been quality
screen capture. We have tried several methods. Our software is
cross platform, so we are able to capture using workstations,
PC's or MAC's. The captures are pretty good, but when we bring
them into Framemaker, they get distorted, fuzzy and the text
looks terrible (stairstepped). What are others out there using
to get quality screen capture?
