Hello,
I am not getting clear copies of pdf which I create using MikTex using Texmaker editor. I am mean, the words are not clear and distinct on screen and in print outs. Is this an issue of pdf version (I am using 5.0) or I can adjust clarity of font characteristics in Texmaker?
Thank you,
Omkar

clarity in pdf files
Hi Omkar,
this has nothing to do with TeXmaker. Your other questions (for instance spacing between paragraphs) too, that's why I will move them to the appropriate subforum like LaTeX/ General. You still will be able find them quickly if you click on View your posts for instance.
To your question, maybe you are using fontenc with T1 option (\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}) but don't have the corresponding T1 fonts installed, then TeX may choose different fonts of lower quality. I could be sure if you posted an example pdf as attachment here.
One possible solution is to install the cm-super package using the MiKTeX package manager. There would be no change needed in your document.
Another solution could be using the lmodern fonts: \usepackage{lmodern}. But those are slightly different from the standard Computer Modern fonts, some people say it looks better.
