I have a problem: If I design a picture in PostScript I'll make
the design at the largest possible scale, so that the picture
will fit on a paper. When I want to use my picture, for example
a logo, I reduce the scale to get the correct size and print it on
the LaserWriter. Now, unfortunately, my lines and paths are blurred
together so that you can't see finer details of the logo.

Next step is to use a scanner and scan the full-scale logo to a bitmap
and send it to the printer at reduced scale. Now it looks good!?!

Is there any way to manipulate scaling and/or something else to get the
same result with my PostScript picture????

PS: I use Adobe Illustrator 88 as a designing tool DS.
