Thomas,

me, I try and scan at around 300DPI, if its a small, very details schematic,
600DPI.

it can be, with acrobat, you can set the resoloution, by defualt its 72DPI which
is the screen resoloution.
Adjust this to 300DPI before hitting 'print/convert'

I'd like to get good CLEAR schematics up,
Also, please mail me with what you've sent me, and I'll put your name and our
website on the first page and protect the document so scammers can't edit the
PDF and claim its theirs.
