[bug-gs] ghostscript having issues with tiff?

[Ray Johnston]

Matthew,

Can you provide an example input PS file and output TIFF that
you consider 'grainy'. It may be that you would prefer the
screening available with 'stochastic dither' that doesn't
compress well, but looks nicer than the default screening.

If you send an example input file, I can run it with stochastic
dither and send it back (and tell you how you can get this
result, of course).

Regards,
Ray
