Is this a false issue because it’s really a browser problem? I ask because when I preview in Safari on my Mac the page is fine, no lines. When I view on Mac in Firefox, there are lines. When I view on my Dell laptop in Firefox the lines are larger, grosser, bigger. Have others encountered this? Is this a Freeway known problem with HTML boxes close to graphics? What are the fixes?
Thanks, again.

I need your diagnosis and review of my (as yet) one-page

the lines issue which will be evident once you visit the website.
What the…? Where did those things come from? They correspond to
HTML boxes, but why? HELP!
Are the lines white? If so, it’s because when the size of the text
gets altered (enlarged) by the browser, it splits the pictures apart.
The pictures have been ‘sliced’ where necessary by Freeway in order to
fit your layout, which you can see if you drag one off onto the
Desktop from the browser. If you drag the first pic, first row on your
page, you’ll see that you’re actually dragging three whole images,
plus two halves from the right hand side. And now the cop-out: I’m
going to leave it to someone else to tell you how to sort it out! I’m
sorry, but I’m really busy just now and this is complex to describe.
Then, one more question for the group. I am scanning book covers and
saving as .PNG and just importing the raw, unsized file into the
graphic boxes, then selecting “Scale and Pad.” Is that the reason
for the low-resolution images? I scanned at 300x300…HELP!
You only need 72ppi for the Web; anything more than that is a waste,
although I can see you’d want to scan them at 300ppi for other uses.
Your pictures are being output as GIFs, which is not the best choice
for all of them; you can set what is output in Freeway’s Inspector,
and even check the compression (JPEG) and quality, by turning on
‘Graphics Preview’ in the ‘View’ menu, which will give you an accurate
view of what they’ll look like on the Web.
