Re: more detail with EEM than with PhotoRag(?)

Let me add that you might want to print the little resolution chart at 
several different gray levels.  As Tyler noted, bleed might be the 
difference, and that could be caused by how the profile is written.  
Particulary at the 100% black point, I've seen even without a loupe 
significant differences in bleed simply caused by how the profile is 
written.   And, of course, the same profile might cause different 
amounts of bleed on 2 different papers depending on what the papers' 
ink load capacities are.  In short, try to eliminate as many variables 
as possible.
