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.
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.
Sorry it's taken me so long to reply, that is very clean! I'm assuming that the reason I need to go through all of this is because the original files are so large. It's a nuisance, but good to know that I can solve the problem. Thank you!
It sounds like the issue was not with the bitmap file size but with the format used for the logo. Converting the logo to a vector format resolved the problem.
