Best Practices

Pro Tips

Tip 1

Use 150 DPI for screen display and online sharing — it produces sharp images at reasonable file sizes.

Tip 2

Use 300 DPI when the images will be printed — lower DPI images may appear pixelated when printed at full size.

Tip 3

PNG produces larger files but is lossless — use it when image quality must be preserved exactly (e.g. diagrams with fine lines).

Tip 4

If you only need one or two pages, specify a page range to avoid processing the entire document.
