Fuzzy graphics and fonts

[sorengen]

Hi All - just wondering why fonts and graphics are fuzzy. I'm thinking that with the graphics it's because the site is being stretched to fit the screen... but why the fonts? I thought the fonts were vector and would stay crisp. Client is complaining about the fuzzy fonts. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

You may have Grouped your text: that turns them into images.

Is it possible that you have the text grouped with something? This turns it into a image and the text gets fuzzy.

Thanks Guys... sigh... I know - what a newbie mistake! You'd never guess I've been a Xara user since 1999! Ugh. I do appreciate the help! That did the trick!

A related question I think. I've designed some images (text and graphics) to be imported to a slideshow (Fade Slideshow Widget). The slides are comprised of a shaded background rectangle, and text and/or images on top - all in the same layer. I have not grouped the text or images, just exported the whole page as either jpg or png using default parameters. The images look clear and crisp when I display them in Windows Explorer and Office Picture Manager, but appear fuzzy when displayed on my website in the slideshow. I design the slide images to be the dimensions required for the eventual slideshow, so they're not scaled when they're imported to the slideshow. Any help will be appreciated.
