<div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">Actually, chimera's EPS files are at a fixed resolution. To get a higher resolution, save the image with a higher resolution. An easy way to get a reasonable resolution is to switch to print units
in the Save Image dialog, and choose a size in inches or cm. The default "Print resolution" of 100dpi is generally more than adequate since printers need many dots to represent a single pixel and most computer monitors are roughly 100dpi.<br>
<br>
Also, note that EPS files are huge compared to PNG or TIFF files. Most, if not all, journals now accept TIFF or PNG images, so there is no need to generate an EPS file.<br>

The image in the pop of window is nice but the saved image in the eps format is not so clear. Let me suggest how to save the image in the publication quality.</font></div>
