[GRASS-dev] Re: gis.m: how to create high-resolution graphics file ?

[Michael Barton]

Moritz,

I recently created GRASS output for a large banner 72"x24". The images were
8"x10" or larger. I expanded my display to match my iMac screen and they
came out looking very good. I used Inkscape to add nice looking text.
