Thanks for the reality check Darren!  I've reviewed lots of other guides and
Adobe's is the best.  I suppose it should be considering that's their specialty.
Anyway, I can live with what I have, but I just wanted to do some checking.

Regards,
Michelle

Hi,

To be honest, I think maybe you're shooting a little high trying to get your
images to look as good as the Photoshop guide. Consider that they're
probably printed somewhere closer to 1200 dpi on a better type of paper. If
you keep increasing the dpi, you may see better results (if you have a good
enough monitor, printer, etc.) but your file size will get enormous in a big
hurry. Thanks. DB.

Ok, I give up. I've tried to increase the pixel depth of my
screen captured images to 300 dpi, but they still aren't
looking as good as they look in the Adobe Photoshop
reference guide.  The image looks okay, but I can still see the
pixels.  The Adobe book images look smoother.  The gray is
solid gray, not a bunch of gray tiny dots.  From a distance
you can't see the dots, but up close, you can.  Does anyone
know what else can be done to smooth out these images?  Any
help would be appreciated.

Thanks, Michelle
