> ... What you nee > to know is this LPI or Lines per inch, Excatly. A rule of thumb is to have your files at 1.5 times the LPI of your output device. Many "low end" printers print at around 80 LPI (which is a measure rarely specified in the manuals, BTW), so 80 x 1.5 = 120 = rounded to a "safe" 150 dpi. Many operators don't know much about this and request files at 300 dpi (specially when working with offset presses), resulting in unnecessary huge files that take longer time to process. In any case, it is better to check what the output device will be and work accordingly. In any case, a higher resolution to begin with would be more desirable.
