Resizing from that resolution will not maintain the fine lines needed to read text. It starts by not expecting video captured at 1680×1050 PC desktop resolution to be readable in a tiny 720×480 DVD sized video. The same rules apply for any small format out like YouTube. In this tutorial I’m going to share some of the techniques that I use when making Camtasia tutorials for DVD delivery. Yikes! But with a little planning and understanding of the limitations of the DVD format, you can get pretty good results. That’s like changing the resolution of your PC screen to 640×480.
When creating tutorials using screen capture with an application like Camtasia for delivery on small formats like DVD, we sometimes forget that DVD resolution is 720×480 (NTSC) or 720×576 (PAL).
We are spoiled by our high resolution computer screens.
