I want to use the PDF widget to print a PDF with additional markings added in LiveCode.  Showing a simple PDF tax form in Widget 1 at 100% scale, I tried this script:

on p1

get the pageRect of widget 1

open printing with dialog

print card from (item 1 to 2 of it) to (item 3 to 4 of it) into it

close printing

end p1


This prints a full page at the proper size, but not with acceptable print quality; everything is slightly blurred and pixellated.  How can I get a good quality printout?
