Really!?  That would be horrible, given that any decent printer these 
days has at least 300 dpi resolution.

Fortunately for the code path I'm using (the 'Udig Map -> BIRT report 
element -> BIRT report render' that I mentioned last year), this does 
not appear to be true, but I would really, really hope it is not true 
in general for udig's pdf export (understandable if that's all that 
iText supports, but still a pretty horrible limitation).

regards,

Vince.
