The problem _is_ the pixelation. You will always have bad results
when you zoom into a jpg, gif, png etc image.
I don't agree here. The problem is the compression :-)
Attached a pdf-image that you can directly use with LyX.
Thanks, this one produces by far the best quality when used _inline_.
But ...
But anyway why don't you use the original image, I mean somebody
must have drawn it, so better use this version.
You know ... big company (rather), external designers, long
bureaucratic ways, ... they don't give it out. I have already asked
the marketing dept here in .ch. They'd had to ask marketing in .uk
and .uk had to get an offer from the external company. Next, it'd
come back to me (maybe in 3 weeks), and I'd have to sign it somehow,
and get the money. In other words: no way.
Ok, the "but" above: I have used Roy's hint on background images. My
preamble looks like this:
---
\usepackage{eso-pic,graphicx}
\newcommand\BackgroundPicture[2]{%
\setlength{\unitlength}{1pt}% default
\put(0,[EMAIL PROTECTED]){%
\parbox[t][\paperheight]{\paperwidth}{%
\vfill
\centering\includegraphics[angle=#2]{#1}
\vfill
}}}
\makeatother
\usepackage[ps2pdf,pdfauthor={},pdftitle=
{},urlcolor=blue,linktocpage,colorlinks=true]{hyperref}
\AddToShipoutPicture{\BackgroundPicture{./COLTPapier.eps}{0}}
---
This works fine as long as it is "eps". Now, I have converted the eps
to a zip-compressed pdf (Photoshop), and replaced the filename.
Tadaa! Not working. "LaTeX Error: Cannot determine size of graphic".
I really hope to get this sorted soon, somehow. Can I ask pdflatex to
create pdfs with zip-compressed(?) pngs inside? Maybe add some weird
param?
