The problem I’m seeing is that the quality is very grainy in the resultant PDF output. I found a forum reference from 2003 mentioning that EPS placement was only supported in the PS generation and that when using the PDF generator it is using the thumbnail instead. Not sure if this is still correct. In any regards, is there any way to improve the image quality of the EPS files so that they are crisp in the final output?<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><a href="mailto:trevor.hendricks@kohler.com" title="mailto:trevor..hendricks@kohler.com"><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Trevor Hendricks</span></b></a></span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'> <br>Project Analyst -- Publication Systems <br>Technical Communications, MS: 078 <br></span><i><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>p</span></i><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>: 920-457-4441; ext. 73571<br></span><i><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>f</span></i><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>: 920-803-3939<br></span><i><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>e</span></i><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>: <a href="mailto:trevor.hendricks@kohler.com">trevor.hendricks@kohler.com</a> <br></span><i><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Experience gracious living with </span></i><i><span style='color:#1F497D'><a href="http://www.kohler.com/" title="http://www.kohler.com/"><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Kohler</span></a></span></i><i><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>.</span></i><i><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><br></span></i><i><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><a href="http://www.kohlerserviceparts.kohler.com/" title="http://www.kohlerserviceparts.kohler.com/">Genuine Kohler Service Parts</a></span></i><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><a href="http://www.asknature.org/">Ask Nature</a></span><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><a href="http://savewateramerica.com/home.swa">Save Water America</a><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Math problems??
