Java Viewer Help

This file provides details about the most common questions regarding the Java Viewer.

Poor Image Quality

For best results and best image quality you should set your monitor for 24bit true color @ 800x600 or 1024x768 resolutions. Higher resolutions tend to magnify compression artifacts within the images which may be objectionable to some people. Compression artifacts will manifest themselves as a 'halo' affect in areas where there is very little contrast, such as the sky or large areas of a solid color.
