Exporting issues

[DWesdorp]

Hi there, I try to do my best on my english. It's my first time on the forum. 

 

I have a problem with exporting in designer. When I make something in AD and I export it to a .jpg (or anything else), the picture is bad. I don’t know what I am doing wrong.

When I make it, it is sharp and when I export it it looks like this:

I tried other pictures to and they all came out like this. I export it as .jpg best quality , bilinear. 

I'm not a professional user or know really much about the program, I just like to do some basic stuff with photo and designer. But I hope someone can help me.

Hi DWesdorp,

Welcome to the forums

Your document is only 518px x 230px which at 300dpi equates to 44mm x 19.5mm, so exporting at this size creates a relatively small image which will appear blurry.

If you open Document Setup from the context toolbar, then input new dimensions for the document (say 5000px wide) and change the Resample option to Lanczos 3 Separable, then select Ok, your document will resize and now will create a much larger (and therefore less compressed) JPEG on export.

Please see the quick GIF below showing this process, I hope this helps!

Problem solved. You make me very happy, thank you so much for the explanation and the GIF. I didn't know it was so important. Again many thanks!
