Description

In PDF output, current images are now defined as 150 dpi pictures. With 300 dpi they look out to small.
With 300 dpi pictures, output would look greater.

On my laptop, when i take screenshots, the produced file is OK to be printed at 150 dpi in the PDF output.
To set print resolution of the picture i did following : Open in GIMP, set picture print size from 72dpi to 150dpi and save.
If I set the resolution to 300dpi (which would give the best output), images are to small and unreadable.
If I omit to set the resolution, images are printed with a 72dpi output, which is very pixellised.

For now, i will continue to take screenshots and change resolution to 150 dpi.

Maybe a screenshot session on a high resolution screen would produce better quality images ?

Someone who can take this in charge just before release, when we know every images that are necessary ?

This is OK, but the dependencies installation were not updated : it should now include imagemagick as well ! I'll do it.
