User’s Manual for InterForm400® 321
Select the TIFF file you want to read into InterForm400
®
and specify the member into
which you want to add the image, and which is referred to in an overlay definition. If you
select an image with grey tones you will see a screen like this:

InterForm400 will show you the size of the image in dots (300 equals an inch). If you intend
to print the image larger it is a very good idea to enlarge it here. If you do so the grey areas
will be presented as fine as possible in the final output.
The magnitude factor states how many times you want to enlarge the image. Using '2'
will double the size.
