Lousy quality of jpeg

[AndyD]

HI

I am trying to make a few simple graphics with a line of text on a coloured background. The problem is that when I export th graphics, the olourred background looks pixelated. If I change the dpi on the export, then it changes the size of the graphic, which I don't want to happen. I've tried playing about but don't seem to be able to improve the quality on screen. Can anyone advise?

Red is always poor with jpg compression.
You can try another colour or just increase the image IQ to something like 95%

Hi Sledger,
Many thanks for the advise.

Or export as PNG. If the size of the image is not that large, it will produce a much cleaner image of any color.

Depending you can use True Color, True Color + Alpha, or 8-bit (256 colors).
