  Subject: [Digital BW] 360 ppi frowned upon by offset printer


  I assumed that 360 ppi was the correct resolution for my own inkjet 
  printing and for discs to send to an offset printer for inclusion in a 
  book. He says they prefer 400-600 ppi for best results. (We already 
  clarified the ppi/dpi issue). I would appreciate advice from those 
  experienced in dealing with offset printing houses. Should I start 
  saving my images at higher res? I couldn't exist without this forum! 
  Thanks so much
