[Geomoose-users] Printing quality

The "quality" variable in GeoMoose v1.6 printpdf2.php is really an integer used 
to multiply the map image dimensions (mainly used to minimize line jagginess), 
and is not related to jpeg compression quality.  Typical values are 1, 2 or 3, 
and it is set in the configuration XML, then passed to print.php (have a look at 
countydemo.xml around line 116).

Best regards,
Brent Fraser
