liv: alternating calligraphed and modern letters (letters)
OK, so this is in fact wedding-related, but I need the benefit of your wisdom in an area that isn't really specific to weddings. Namely, we're trying to get invitations custom-printed. We have a scan of a beautiful line drawing by [personal profile] hatam_soferet, and we're trying to combine it with text saying "Jack and Liv request the pleasure of your company etc". The printing-company have asked for a 1:1 scale PDF; however, I'm completely unable to create such a file without everything ending up horribly pixellated. Do you have any good suggestions for how to do this?

Also, does anyone know a better font than Italianno? I'm looking for something calligraphy-ish, but a reasonably legible Italic style rather than a very swirly copperplate or anything very loopy or elaborate. Italianno is about right aesthetically but I don't really like its numbers, and there are a few minor infelicities in the way the letters combine.

Soundbite

Miscellaneous. Eclectic. Random. Perhaps markedly literate, or at least suffering from the compulsion to read any text that presents itself, including cereal boxes.
