I do a newsletter using MS Publisher 2000. I print the original on a HP 2300 Laser printer and bring it to a photocopier to run off the copies I need.

The photocopier says that the photos in the newsletter would reproduce better if they were in a dpi format (100 dpi’s) such as you see in newspaper photos.

How would I change a digital image into an image of about 100 dpi’s to import into my MS Publisher newsletter?

Thanks in advance for your help.

I’m willing to bet he meant halftone dots, which are measured in lines per inch. LPI.

You don’t.

You set it on output. In your print options. Your output device creates the halftones.

Make sure you’re using the Postscript driver and not the PCL ones, or you won’t have this option. You’ll also have to turn off any sort of grayscale or resolution enhancement, or it won’t work.

Thanks in advance for your help.
