Saving as eps and pdf results in bad resolution

Postby ppn029012 » Sun Aug 25, 2013 7:50 am

Hi,

I've got an .eps image generated by Matlab. It looks normally when I imported it into Inkscape.

But it loses its resolution of the embedded image when I save either in eps and pdf.

I have no idea now. Could you help me?

Many thanks,
Yunong

Hello there!

Don't know what do you consider is looking "normally".
Your pdf has the coloured objects made of two raster images:
a 10/10 pixel sized for the diagram and a 1/64 for the gradient.
If that's the original, my guess would be your problem is more of the displaying of the raster image,
wether it is interpolated or not.
See how to solve that, described in this post:
http://www.inkscapeforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=15829#p59223

Actually in the current development build raster images are displayed interpolated, not as in the current stabile version.
