I had also printed the "improved" diagram, but, although it is better =
than the other one, there still are many details which cannot be read, =
and the "good" part is anyway fatigating to read.

People keep compressing schematic diagrams with jpg or worse djvu, that =
are unsuitable for diagrams or text. So, a great part of the BAMA =
schematics are poor.

The only way to obtain good diagrams is to use lossless compression, =
like gif. People seems to be generally unaware that, with diagrams, gif =
produces a smaller file than jpg. For instance, converting a bit-map =
diagram of 1,137 kB, I obtained 42 kB with jpg and 13kB with gif.

Thanks for your suggestion anyway.
