7.9 Consider imported graphics resolution

Documents are usually printed at much higher resolution than is available on a computer screen. Graphics are often imported into FrameMaker at 150 or 300 dpi to take advantage of printer resolution and to scale the figure to an appropriate size on the page. But graphics imported at 72 dpi display much better on the screen in WWW documents.

In cases where you want to optimize a document for both the printed page and the screen, you may want to import the same image twice, once at a higher resolution for the printed document and once at a lower resolution for the WWW version of the document. You can then use FrameMaker conditionals to tag the images -- using the Paper conditional for the higher-resolution image and the WWW conditional for the lower-resolution one. For information about FrameMaker's conditional feature, see the FrameMaker documentation.
