You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
I'm assuming you've already set image quality to "maximum."
How many DPI are the images? If the pdf is being created at a higher DPI than the original images, then they'll look jagged.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The images are 72 DPI. Let me make sure that's the PDF resolution.

Thanks, DX! Some of them still look mildly crappy onscreen (as opposed to all and very), but they print much more cleanly.

If you're printing the PDF, then 72dpi images will look crappy printed irrespective of the "PDF resolution" (I'm not sure what that means -- text is resolution independent). Ideally, you want the images to be 300dpi, although less than that can look OK.

Text is, PDFs aren't. There is indeed a driver setting for the PDF resolution.
I printed an image from the file, and it looked decent. That's all I care about.

I think that if a PDF is entirely text and other vector-based elements, then it is resolution independent. I've opened PDFs in Photoshop and Photoshop has asked me what resolution I want to open it at.

Can't say. All I know is mine are not, and switching it helped.

Somewhere in Bitches or Natter ita asked what is Web 2.0. This may be of use [link] ; there's lots of words at least.
Web 2.0 reminds me of the two-tiered internet that some ISPs are starting to implement. For example, if an ISP offers a VOIP service, they may block access to competing technologies like Skype. Or they may charge some websites for priority routing/bandwidth to their sites. Or a search engine could pay for exclusive web search rights on the ISP's network and all other search engines would be blocked.
Here's a [link] .

Based on that article and the others I've read, Web 2.0 is bullshit branding.
