[Coco] Printing on a Coco with modern printers.

Yes, but PDFs actually use embedded images in "foreign" formats (JPEG, TIFF, 
etc.) at much higher resolution. In fact, a scanned PDF is pretty much 
nothing more than a PDF wrapper around a set of TIFF images.

This is true to a certain extent, you'll recall that the original
postscript resolution is 72 dpi, and while we have much higher resolution
printers today, postscript and pdf's are still limited to a placement
resolution of 72 dpi.  And this is what, 30 years after adobe first used
postscript?  40 years maybe.
