One more trick. If you're using PhotoShop, resize the image in PhotoShop
to fit your page layout, then apply an Unsharp Mask using these
settings:

Amount: 25 percent
Radius: 1.0 pixels (sic)
Threshold: 1 levels (sic)

This is a good compromise to provide better legibility when printed.
Save the file as a PhotoShop EPS (not a bitmap) for faster Postscript
processing and printing. Makes for smaller Postscript files, saving you
money when going to a Postscript RIP, and saving headaches when creating
PDF files.

Windows NT needs all the help it can get when dealing with Postscript.
Just one reason we document our software using Macs and Virtual PC. NT
will install on VPC as long as you don't need Service Pack 4.

If anyone knows any tricks for getting SP 4 running on VPC I'd be happy
to hear them.
