thanks for your response. The png file is to be displayed on a video screen (not print). Not sure if any other format can be used; I'm told that file type needs to be png. Not sure if this clarification changes your thinking at all (in regards to my problem).

Thanks for your imput, onno-r The aspect ratio for the PNG file I want is same as my AD doc setup (300x60 pixels). I have setup the AD doc at 300dpi The Source and Dest graphs are also set with horizontal line at top. I then selected the Linear option; in case this made a difference (no visible difference once exported again). No visible difference once exported again using Nearest Neighbor The last thing you mentioned - which I still need to try - is setting up my document using the physical dimensions of where it needs to be used - it's a screen that I don't yet have exact dimensions for; I'm guessing its about 15 ft x 3 ft (457.2cm x 91.44cm) *Looking through other forum threads; seems that a lot of other people are haveing the same problem with PNG; don't see any thread where the problem was resolved (could this be a limitation of AD?).

Still looks blurry when viewing at 100% (even when I open the PNG in AD). *Just so no confusion - I don't have any complaints with the AD file I attached previously; only the PNG format that I export it too.

Hello, Schmu has a problem similar to mine. My vector doc comes out blurry when exported to PNG; can't figure out why. I set my canvas up with the aspect ratio I'm exporting to so I don't think resampling is the problem. I attached my file if you'd like to take a look. Thanks! 300x60 from scratch2.afdesign

Vector to Pixel for export to PNG
doug-life replied to doug-life's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Affinity on iPad Questions
eps opens ok for me. Image looks good in AD. Been trying to research the eps format in order to figure out your thought process when you exported the doc to eps in order to import back to AD; and how this would help with the file eventually being exported to png. Were you trying to do something with the individual elements/objects while it was eps? -
Vector to Pixel for export to PNG

The pixel layer created when I Merge Visible looks blurry even in Affinity (same when exported). Not sure what else to mention about the document - I attached the file in case you want to take a look and possibly see a problem that I'm not aware of. Truly appreciate all your help!

Vector to Pixel for export to PNG
doug-life replied to doug-life's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Affinity on iPad Questions
I have. It comes out very blurry. I then tried exporting to PDF since I've read this is one of the file formats that works better for vector - exported file looks good. However, the best PDF image quality resulted once I removed from certain objects; all the adjustments I applied from the Layer FX Studio (not exactly sure why that made a difference). Once I unapplied any Layer FX, I tried the png format, again - still came out very blurry. -

Created a design (all vector), but now I'm told it needs to be exported to PNG file format. I know now that vector and PNG don't really go together. Searching for best way to get my design exported to PNG while maintaing image quality.
