   Don't know if this is pertinent to this thread, but I see differences when
viewing LaTeX documents such as an OMR (Optical Mark Reader) form I designed
when viewed as PostScript and as PDF. The former displays the graphics
better than does the latter while the latter better displays the text. In my
case, the printed version combines the highest quality of the two.
