Hi,
I'm new here so I apoligize if this subject has been beat to death already. I am looking for a way to create a good tif file from an AutoCAD drawing. Using the plot to file function, I can only ever get 100dpi resolution. (If some one can tell me how to change that it would be great.) This just isn't very good for our needs. Right now, we plot the drawing, then turn around and scan it in, to create a tif image of good quality. (waste of time and paper, with some loss of quality)Any help will be appriciated. Thanks in advance.

I was not able to get OttoTiff from the author's site either.
I found it here: Go to advanced search and enter ottotiff or ottopdf under "Title".
I couldn't get the OttoPDF to work and I think the author mentions that he has withdrawn it for update and re-release.
Good luck
John
