My first attempt to use PrintImage and my problem is getting a nice print of a logo. The logo file is tif and using paint to save it as bmp or jpg gives me rough lettering. Is there a way to get the smooth image that is the tif file?

Thanks for any ideas.

Yes I am reducing the size.

I have Photo Studio and PhotoShop 7.0.
The results are the same with Photo Studio but the bmp file created with PhotoShop does not print in Sesame.
Both jpg and bmp files look great when viewed with Nero Photosnap Viewer.
I also tried with Irfanview but that wasn't any good either.
Following is the code I am using in Sesame:

NewPage(850, 1100)

     PrintImage("c:\David\Lyceum LOGO.jpg",100, 100, 200, 200)

     
     FinishPage()

I substituted bmp for jpg in order to try both formats.

The logo is mostly text and perhaps the tif file just isn't meant to be used.

Is there another approach I should try?

I agree. This was how I achieved good results.


My printer has a resolution of 600 dpi, so my code looks something like the following.

Var DPI as Double = 600

NewPage(8.50 * DPI, 11.00 * DPI)
PrintPagePaper(28)

PrintImage(".\Data\MyImage.png", 5.40 * DPI, 2.35 * DPI, 2.80 * DPI, .60 * DPI) 

I use a variable named "DPI" (set to my printer's dots per inch resolution) as a multiplier so that I can simply enter my coordinates in inches. I find this much easier than calculating each value manually.
