This driver will let you create an image up to 1200 dpi. In my testing I see very little loss in image quality.

Subject: [BR_forum] NWP template resolution




I have been a bit frustrated by the inability to print forms in NWP. We have supported lots of features for drawing boxes, shading, printing logos and signatures, and centering and right justifying proportional text. Bu t we don't have a good way to take a form prepared on Word or Excel and create an NWP template. We can do so with PCL by printing to a file and converting the file to a macro. And we can do so using RTF with the Atlantis product (although we can't really overprint).

I have tried printing to PDF and converting that to a JPEG image, but the resolution is poor. Maybe if there were some way to get a higher res, more accurate graphical image of the page, we could print the page as a background picture in NWP. This would, of course, be very easy to overprint in NWP.

Does anyone have any ideas as to how we can get from Word to a graphical image that has good resolution? If we can solve this, I would be willing to provide some form of NWP macro facility. Although it would be considerable slower than HP's it would be viable.
