MS Office Forum / Publisher / General MS Publisher Questions / June 2007JPG files that are emailed to me are fuzzy
Hi! I publish a community newsletter using Publisher. Sometimes, when I ask advertisers to email me their ads as jpg files they are very fuzzy. Should I be asking them to send them in a different format? Does it matter if they are sending them from a MAC and I'm using a PC? HELP? LaAaura >Hi! >I publish a community newsletter using Publisher. Sometimes, when I ask >advertisers to email me their ads as jpg files they are very fuzzy. Not when viewed, but when printed, RIGHT? Printing normally requires a 300dpi image. Hi! The fuzziness appears when I'm viewing the Publisher newsletter page with the ad inserted. When I'm ready to go to print I convert the file to a pdf but I don't do that until I see all ads are crystal clear. > >Hi! > >I publish a community newsletter using Publisher.

The simple answer is because they're idiots...pardon the attitude...but I get this all the time and they just drive me up the wall. They'll create an ad in whatever program they're using at 72 dpi then when I tell them I want it in 150 or 300 they just bump up the resolution on the fuzzy old gif or jpg to 300. Oh...why can't you use that? | Hi! | I publish a community newsletter using Publisher. Sometimes, when I ask [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] | | LaAaura So...if I understand your response...I should ask them to make sure their resolution is at least 150 (300 would be better) when they submit their gif or jpg file(s)? > The simple answer is because they're idiots...pardon the attitude...but I > get this all the time and they just drive me up the wall.

YUP. On 6/29/07 2:16 PM, in article 4F9C876B-C672-48BC-AEDD-D8C9398041BB@microsoft.com, "Laura" > Hi! > I publish a community newsletter using Publisher. Sometimes, when I ask [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > > LaAaura Have them send them in as 300DPI JPEG files using the highest quality settings that they have available. In PhotoShop then can choose 10 or 12 for the quality setting. Other programs may word it a bit differently. One thing to keep in mind, *NEVER* trust what you see on screen for color or "quality". Especially with Publisher, monitors and desktop printers. You can't get that level of quality, consistency or predictability from Publisher, the average monitor and almost any desktop printer. Can you get a good idea? Sometimes. Can it match? Sometimes. Is it reliable? Not very often.
