I create posters for an organization which uses png files for the logos. When I export the posters to pdf for printing, the quality of the png files is severly degraded and appears very pixelated. I've tried several tweaks, but nothing seems to affect the end result. Not sure how to solve the problem - I have recently purchased Corel Draw 2024, and thought it would fix this issue, but it hasn't.
I do this as a matter of business all the time please link a CDR file to download.
thank you. I feel silly, but I'm afraid I don't know how to link a file here. This is the first time I've used this community.
is this correct?
HI Hollie!Here is your file exported as a PDF with no preperation, no adjustments done...PDF
Thank you for taking the time to create this. It's the same result I get - meaning the same degree of pixilation in the Kingston Choral Society logo. I was hoping to get something with the same smoother, and for years was able to, but maybe there's something about this particular png file that make it impossible.
Here is your file with adjustments done.• The best thing is to do is FLATTEN to one bitmap when many bitmap objects overlap one another, as close as possible to the output resolution you need.• Try avoiding to make Corel to downsample the objects for the PDF export, or at least, the less % as possible. From 1375 DPI to 300 is far too much. From 400 to 300 OK...Here is the result.PDF
This is much clearer, Thank you. I will try to recreate what you've done now.
Take a look at this, in your file the bug for the choral society, I simply traced it using outline logo default settings. Flatted all the lenses into the base image.
