How to keep the picture quanlity when importing graphics?

[Guest_imported]

Hi everyone, I create some graphics in Photoshop and saved as Tiff. They look great until I imported them to Pagemaker, the graphics became blurry. I printed the Pagemaker document and the image quanlity was very poor. The same image looks great and prints fine in Photoshop.

I've already changed the setting to High Resolution in General Preference, and it didn't help.

Hi,

The high resoltion option has nothing to do with print quality but with the screen display quality.

What I think about the poor quality of your printouts has probably something to do with the dpi's of your tiff's or with the lpi's of your printer.The two are possible.
If the image size of your tiffs is small and you enlarged them in pagemaker the resolution of your image will be degraded. so you must see that the original tiff is large enough to get a good printout.

Hope this helps

Thank you guys. I found that making a huge tiff and resize the image to fit in Pagemaker improve the quanlity a little. Now the problem is my file is getting too big. I guess it's a trade off.

Thanks again.
