Before making a statement like that, you might want to run the actual  
program, which uses a scalable Mac OS X Core Graphics context using  
scalable fonts.  You can blow the NSView up so a single fulls stop is  
a full resolution disk an inch in diameter, if you want.

The original capture using Grab.app was in TIFF and I had converted to  
a lower resolution JPEG so people would not have to download large  
files just to have a look, and JPEG is more universal than PNG so even  
old systems can view the output.
