Here are some examples of good images with good resolution from a book I read a few weeks ago...

The map in Quest is much clearer than the one from Exiles and is attached. |

In the interests of balance, I thought I might mention that the map in my paperback edition of Riddle-Master's Game by Patricia A McKillip is absolutely shocking. The black is too heavy, meaning all the letters run together. You can just about make out what things are meant to be if you concentrate.
Maps are a problem in ebooks, though. Even if the resolution is good enough, it's not always easy or quick to navigate to and from the map. |

Artificial Images like charts/graphs/maps are where lossless formats like PNG shine. Quote:
625x1000 PNG -> 444x705 JPG You know what would be nice? They should hand out the vector files, so I can generate my own high resolution images! Last edited by Tex2002ans; 03-20-2014 at 03:06 PM. |

http://store.kobobooks.com/en-US/ebo...-lake-superior I found it an interesting read. It reads kind of like a very long newspaper article in some ways (the author is a newspaper guy). |
