    Default imported images are very pixelated

    I am revising a CD layout and when I open the Freehand files, the images (tifs)
    created in Photoshop are extemely pixelated in Freehand. I tried printing one
    out and it's pixelated. The printout that came with the files looks great and
    it was printed from the same files. I opened the tifs in PS and they look
    fine. Is this a preview setting. I need help ASAP. I don't know freehand
    very well.

    Default Re: imported images are very pixelated

    What version of FH are you using? I assume you're printing to a
    non-Postscript printer, right?

    In FH 10 or FHMX, yes, you have to set your Preferences > Redraw to highest
    resolution.

    In FHMX, if you are also using Raster Effects, then File > Settings > Raster
    Effects Setting must be a resolution appropriate for your printer. Check
    printer documentation.
