Is Preview on iPad lo-res only?

Aug 14, 2012 2:47 PM

Just tried out "Preview > Preview" on iPad on a new iPad (iPad 3), and it looks like it's lo-res. Is this because it's just previewing? Thanks!

    What you see is what you’re going to get.

    Are you doing the preview from the Folio Builder panel or from the Overlay Creator/Folio Overlay panel?

     

    If you are in Folio Builder then the preview is what you will get on the device. If it looks low-res you should make sure the folio you are previewing is in PDF format, and if you are specifically going to target the new ipad that the folio size is 2048x1536.

    Hmmm. haven't tried in a while but I could have sworn that the preview of the entire folio gave you whatever you had the folio set for.

    It's previewing through Folio Overlays. But I haven't uploaded it to the DPS service yet.

    When you preview through the Overlays panel or through File > Folio Preview, the preview doesn't take into account the folio or article settings. It just previews the current layout.
