    Default .eps image looks awful on screen.

    I'm mostly an InDesign and Photoshop user. I dabble in Illustrator on occasion.

    Here is my problem.

    I have created a logo in Illustrator and saved it as an .eps. When the .eps file is placed into an InDesign, Powerpoint, Word (etc.) document, the logo looks bitmapped/rough when it appears on the monitor. The logo also looks bimapped/rough in PDF's.

    The twist is that the logo looks great when I print those documents.

    Any suggestions or thoughts?

    System: PC, Pentium III
    O/S: Win 2000
    Loads of RAM
    Illustrator 8

    Default Re: .eps image looks awful on screen.

    That's normal. It's purpose is to save processor time and RAM by using a smaller image than the one embedded.

    In InDesign, you can change this by right-clicking on that .eps and going to "Display Performance->High Quality Display".
