Is it possible to display images at resolutions higher than 72dpi on Servoy forms?
I would like to render some text headers as images so I can use non-standard fonts, but they end up looking terrible on print outs.
Has anyone had success with good looking text images in Servoy?
Thanks for your time,

so when you print to a printer they don’t look good?
We do try to print pictures in high res solution. So that should work.
Normally if you place a 72 dpi image it prints at 72 dpi which is indeed not very sharp. If you make your image smaller and tell it to crop it will start increasing it’s resolution at printing time, eg if you would like to print at 300 dpi and you have a 200 pixel image you would set it’s width property in servoy to 72/300*200 = 48
One twist - the images are getting loaded in an html field. I tested your technique by both placing an image directly on a form and embedding it in an html field – the former works, the latter doesn’t. Does this mean if I want high quality graphics, they have to be placed directly on a form?
Can someone explain the
72/300*200 = 48
formula a little better?
I gota 1000 dpi CMYK image from our graphics department. When I reduce it to 300 dpi RGB at a width of 2 inches, and try to import it as tiff or jpeg, the images is over 9 inches across.
No matter how I scale it, in photoshop or Servoy, the image is never sharp.
