Others have already given you the answer: use Job Options to
turn off downsampling. Some further comments:


  - If you want to turn off downsampling completely, use the
    "Press Optimized" job option settings. Doing this bloats
    your PDF. A lot.

  - The "Print Optimized" settings seem to be a reasonable
    compromise between PDF size and bitmap graphics fidelity.
    As always, YMMV.

  - In Distiller, watched folders can have their own job options.
    That means dragon-drop can produce a completely different
    result than a watched folder... and different folders can
    have completely different job options.


Confusing? You bet. Ask me how I figured all this out. :-P
