Logo pixelated when printed

[jasonwood]

Hi there,

I'm trying to change a client's logo on their invoices but it seems no matter what format I use, the quality is super-lousy when printed. You can zoom in to 400% and it still looks clear on screen.

I have high-quality versions of the new logo in EPS, JPG, TIFF and none seem to work.

Any ideas?

Version: v5.x

Platform: Mac OS X Jaguar

This may not be your problem but worth looking into. I had that exact same problem printing an invoice also. It turned out that in the print Dialogue it was defaulting to a driver for an old printer everytime Filemaker printed. I removed the old driver and the problem went away.

I tried saving as a PDF and it even looks terrible when I open it in Acrobat (on screen).

I'm just using the generic laser printer driver in OS X - through AppleTalk.

My customer is printing over Rendevous, and has the same problem.

Make sure your FMP is patched to the last level. Updates on the web site.

Yep I have 5.5v2.

I noticed the problem also happens in AppleWorks, but not in Preview.

I'm not sure what to try next...
