Raster Image Resolution (DWF)

AutoCAD

 
Raster Image Resolution (DWF)
 
 
 

Specifies the resolution (in dots per inch) for raster images for DWF files. When you set a higher resolution, the file is more precise, but the file size is also larger.

When you create DWF files intended for plotting, select a resolution to match the output of your plotter or printer. High resolutions (over 2,400 dpi) are for viewing. For example, when you create DWF files of drawings that contain a lot of detail, such as a topographical map of a large region, these files use a higher resolution setting for greater detail in the DWF file. Use extreme resolutions (over 40,000 dpi) only when necessary; they may produce very large files. As you increase the resolution setting, raster image quality increases, the speed of printing decreases, and memory requirements increase.

Color and Grayscale Resolution

Sets the resolution for raster image colors and grayscale in the DWF file in dots per inch. The default setting is 200 dpi. Select Custom to enter a custom color and grayscale resolution. This setting cannot exceed the current vector resolution setting.

Custom Color Resolution

Specifies a custom resolution for color raster images in the DWF file in dots per inch. You must select Custom under Color and Grayscale Resolution to specify a custom color resolution. This setting cannot exceed the current vector resolution setting.

Black and White Resolution

Sets the resolution for black and white raster images in the DWF file in dots per inch. The default setting is 400 dpi. Select Custom to enter a custom black and white resolution. This setting cannot exceed the current vector resolution setting.

Custom Black and White Resolution

Specifies a custom resolution for black and white raster images for the DWF file in dots per inch. You must select Custom under Black and White Resolution to specify a custom black and white resolution. This setting cannot exceed the current vector resolution setting.
