What do these terms mean? <snip> The quote below is from ragfield's answer to one of these many similar questions asked in this forum: [...] * Use Highest Quality Vector Representation. This should match what you see in Mathematica nearly exactly, but it will not be compatible with all viewer applications. For PS/EPS this uses PS level 3 features. For PDF it uses features that are not supported by Apple's PDF engine prior to Mac OS X 10.5. * Use Most Compatible Vector Representation. This will not exactly match what you see on screen in Mathematica, but it will produce a small file that works in all viewers."
