Thanks, Mike. I understand your point about ownership of the ad, and that's an issue I'll tackle separately. At any rate, I don't have access to the original file at this point. (That's how I got into the spot of having to scan to begin with.) Re-creating the ad would be an option if I could get hold of the background image they used, but I don't have that either. (Though I'm trying....)

Now back to the topic: if I understand correctly, you're telling me I should reduce the resolution and that I can expect poor reproduction of the text. That's a bit of a bummer, as even at 300-600 dpi the text looks crummy.

If I go the jpg/gif route, should I scan that at 72-96 dpi and then post it directly? Will I still run into the problem of poor text reproduction?

Thanks again,

D.
