I am not sure what software you used to make the PDF files. It looks
too good to be from Microsoft word :), and it does not look like latex
either. I use PNG images, add them to my latex document, and generate
PDF use pdflatex, and resolution always looked as original.

So, may be you can PNG.

Well, the trick is not to have to modify the code by hand, but
use the GUI builder always to change the GUI layout.

I tried both methods, and I just can't go back to coding GUI by
hand any more. What used to take me days, I now do in 1-2 hrs.

Any way, whatever works for one I guess.

Yes, very useful web page.
