The free Acumen Journal presents two monthly articles by John Deubert of Acumen Training, one
— ‘The Acrobat User‘ — featuring advanced uses of
Adobe Acrobat, and the second — ‘PostScript Tech‘ —
covering some aspect of PostScript programming.

For April 2005, the technical features are:

• The Acrobat User: ‘Image Resampling in Acrobat Distiller’

  Distiller and many other programs that create PDF files allow you to
  resample the images placed in that file. Most people are vague about
  what resampling is and how it differs from compression.

• PostScript Tech: ‘Handling PostScript Errors, Part 1’

  The default PostScript error handler typically sends the name of the
  error and the offending command to the output stream. This month and
  next, Deubert shows how to write an own error handler to report on
  additional information and print the message to the current page.
