Subject: Different images for screen and printing

Hi all,

The more I think about the concept Hans suggested about having different
images for viewing on screen and printing, the more I like the idea :)  I
have some documents which include vector PDF diagrams.  These look good on
a 300dpi or 600dpi printer but are very aliased on screen.  Since they are
colour, Acrobat does no anti-aliasing.  I'd rather not include images in
their place as the vector versions look good in print.  Therefore, it
would be really good to include them as JPEGs for viewing on screen and as
PDFs for printing.  Does the plan cater for images of different type, or
just different resolution?  That would really put my presentations ahead
of the PowerPoint ones everyone else here seems to do.  (That and the good
maths and the fact that an entire presentation can fit on a floppy.)

- Matthew
