Maybe my file is too big? Too many objects? Too High resolution?

- It’s a map with three pixel layers: ink, color, and background colour. - Then just a bunch of Art Text with names and a few shapes on top. 

I’ve rezized the pixel ones because the default resolution was garbage. I can’t find a way to resize it back down. (options given are x2, x3, x4. nothing to make it smaller that I can find. 

*merging doesn’t work peachy either. For some reason it doesn’t merge as it looks but put them all on equal visibility. also takes forever to do merging and then sometimes crashes* 

What can I do? 

Thanks!

Hi @diband Welcome to the Forums,

You've not mentioned if this is Designer or Photo but on the Document menu in both apps you have a resize option.  What are the dimensions of you file and what file type are you exporting to? 

If you could attach your afdesign/afphoto file, i'll be happy to see if i can get it to export and also look at what's causing the issue.

Hi @stokerg Thank you! 

Designer. For some reason I though I was in a forum for only that one. 

Yes but I did a pixel resize. There is an option for that. The other two being Canvas and Document. In the pixel option the only variables appear to be to increase. (x2 x3 x4). I’m not quite sure  what it actually does but it had the effect I wanted. To make the resolution of the pixel brushes higher when drawing on the pixel layers. 

70x50 inches - Woops! I didn’t realize how huge the canvas was. That’s the size of a person isn’t it. 

PNG and JPEG

Sure. I’ll see if I can attach it. (luckily its just personal play and not client work) 

- Doesn’t work I’m getting: Server error code 200. but it looks like something attached. Guess I’ll just leave it and post and hope for the best. 

Thanks a lot for replying so quickly!

edit: Ok so by decreasing the document size to half the size 35x25 in the exports are working. The quality leaves a lot to want for in the exports though. Strangely it looks good still in the app. Not sure why the exports are so much more blurry. 

edit2: I managed to improve the export quality by telling it to export to a larger size while still keeping the working document smaller.
