I'm using Vista 32bit OS and Acrobat Prof 8.0. PDF files created from Word 2007 documents have poor resolution on my monitor. But they print fine. How can they be viewed on the monitor with high resolution?

Hi --

I am not sure I understand what you mean by "poor resolution" on your monitor. Your monitor uses a defined resolution that is quite low (72 or 96 ppi, for example) which results in a poor print output.

If your printed content looks good, the only thing I can suggest is you check your monitor settings. Consult your Vista documentation for the instructions.
