to read.
The standard resolution for images on the Web is 72
dots per inch. While images of higher resolutions
can be used, these take longer to download.
While 72 dpi is adequate for most graphic
images and photographs, it results in smaller details
like text appearing blurry. This is a critical
issue for online annual reports since much of the
useful content is presented in the text of the MD&A,
notes to financial statements and the financial statements
themselves.
Furthermore, to save on the cost of
paper, the text of the printed report from which the
images are derived is often printed at 10 points or
lower, making the image-based version even more illegible.
