Printing images from KLayout
Hi everyone,
I'm having trouble printing high quality PDFs from the KLayout Editor / Viewer. I was using CutePDF maker as it had 4800 dpi. Images come out looking like 50 dpi or very pixilated. Is there any way to go about getting better images worth of client reviews ?
Many thanks in advance !

Hi,
Printing should use the DPI settings from the "Printer" (whatever this is for PDF export). Maybe there is a setting in CutePDF for the DPI?
As an option you can create high-res PNG images or use vector export. For a script that does that see https://www.klayout.org/svn-public/klayout-resources/trunk/scripts/screenshot.lym
You can also try vector export to SVG. There is a SVG export script here: https://www.klayout.de/forum/discussion/873/working-with-dxfs. But the output loads very slow by the renderers I know (Inkscape, Firefox ...).
