Comparing screen and device resolution in placed PDF pages
A placed PDF page displays at the best resolution possible for the given scale and screen
resolution. When printed on a PostScript output device, a placed PDF page always prints
at the resolution of the device. When printed on a non-PostScript printer, a placed PDF
page prints at the same resolution as the other InDesign objects in the document. For
example, vector (drawn) objects will print at the same resolution as other vector objects in
the document. Bitmap images will print at the best resolution supplied in the placed PDF
file.
Note: Non-PostScript printers do not support tinting for type or screen optimization for
images, so their output quality will be inferior.
