Zusammenfassung:A MAIN DRAWBACK OF DESKTOP PUBLISHING SYSTEMS is that the 300 dpi resolution on laser printers is not good enough for professional publication. This shortcoming can be overcome by printing the files generated by desktop publishing software on high-end phototypesetting equipment, such as the Linotronic 100, which has a resolution of 1250 dpi.
