tiff resolution in catia v5 drafting
(OP)
hello to everyone,
i'm trying to make a tiff in a drawing (catia v5), but its resolution is very poor.
does anybody kwow if there is a way to configure it? (same problem with jpg)
i've seen some tiff-s from v4 and they look much better
thanks in advance

This is for V5, Tools/Image/Capture Options (third from left)Tab Pixel, rendering quality should be the answer.
There is also option when saving the picture to select jpg quality.

For some obscure reason looks like *jpg medium quality works best; for me at least..
Good luck

Sounds like you are doing a screen dump.
I think you need to find a plotter driver that will plot to a tif file. That way you will get a full size drawing tif file!

try this about half way down is a 50-time trial demo.
seems to work well
RE: tiff resolution in catia v5 drafting
The download you suggested seems to only for Windows. Does it work on AIX? Or can we get any other download?
thx

Can you elaborate on what you said? I am on AIX. When I plot a Catia file, I am getting a >hpgl file. Now, can I get a .tiff file by following your method?
And, what is Ghostscript?

Find catout.gl2 in your home and ftp to windows and convert.

Why don't you try to save as pdf? You really need as tiff file?
Ghostscript is a software available also for UNIX (as I remember) which can open and print postscript files (but the same thing is doing also Adobe Acrobat Reader).
In v4 is also an option to print to a pdf file. Probably the same thing is also available in v5 if you have installed this option under UNIX.

See online docs under CATIA Infrastructure User Guide - Adding a Printer and Configuration Scenarios.
Adjusting your Compression and DPI should get you something usable.
