Help needed with Export - bad quality

**dtanner2k@hotma** · 27 November 2006, 11:27 AM

Hello,

I have searched through the forums and read a number of threads on how to export a file at a high quality. Unfortunately everything I have tried as still remained blurred with JPEG, BMP, PNG and GIF. It looks great on screen but I cannot get a decent image out to use on letterheads etc.

I have created the image from scratch in Xara - please can someone help me get a decent print quality logo.

Take a look at the attached PDF which I made from an export to JPG

Is this better quality than you're getting?

This is much better on print then the quality I was getting. Please can you let me know what settings to use.

Many Thanks

I tried exporting the image to jpeg, using 300 dpi and 0% compression. The file is big, but sharp!

You would be better off using png or gif for your exports here. gif handles large areas of solid colour far better than the lossy jpg. Here's a 96 dpi gif at 16 colours.
