<div><span><font face="Arial">This works fine but
the TIFF looks as if the PDF was exported at 150dpi, which is a pretty crappy
resolution. Using something else (like PDFCreator and printing to a TIFF),
the USGS GeoPDFs can be exported at higher resolutions, but then of course you
lose the georeferencing. So I have GDAL which keeps the georeferencing but
only seems to like 150dpi, and then a zillion other solutions which allow 300
dpi or 600 dpi, but have no georeferencing.</font></span></div>
<div><span><font face="Arial"></font></span> </div>
<div><span><font face="Arial">I did try gdalwarp
-tr 5 5 for example (which would roughly be equivalent to one of these maps at
300dpi), but it is clear that it is still rendering the PDF at 150dpi and then
generating a 5-meter TIFF - looks no different really than the default output
with gdal_translate.</font></span></div>
<div><span><font face="Arial"></font></span> </div><span>
<div><span><font face="Arial">Is there some
argument that would specify the dpi at which the GeoPDF were rendered before
conversion to GeoTIFF? I don't see anything like that in the docs or the
list archives.</font></span></div>

they are great, going back to the 1880s for Maine. What fun!</font></div>
