Increasing DPI

Planned

Hello,


Could we have an option to improve the DPI, even temporarily?

I understand that it takes more resources, etc. But sometimes, the plans are completely unreadable on zzTakeoff. I have to keep a PDF version open on a second screen to work properly.


Here is an example on zzTakeoff and the original version.



Thanks you 😁

Hi Fred, Thanks for posting this request here. The dev team has told us that they will be adding options for importing at higher resolutions.

As a work around for now - you can open the original PDF in Adobe Acrobat (or similar) and print it to a PDF as a larger page size (ArchE or similar)

This will increase the page size and will make it so it has better resolution when importing into zzTakeoff.

Note: If you do this, you need to make sure to set the scale using a known dimension printed on the plans (as the pages have been re-sized and the auto-scale won't be accurate)


I'll pass your request on to the dev team as well.
