i'm not pro at pagemaker but i've used it briefly before and i use other adobe apps. just wondering how large the image is natively before you import it into page maker? also if you actaully print the page after you imported the image, does it look blurry and pixely still? if so. then its probably that the original image wasn't a high enough resolution. if not, then its probably a page maker cpu saving feature where it doesn't full out render the image ie, preview mode
