: Uploaded PDF text looks blurry on my blog I've created a PDF pricelist for my photography clients, and it looks great as a PDF. However, I wanted to upload it to my blogsite as an image
I've created a PDF pricelist for my photography clients, and it looks great as a PDF. However, I wanted to upload it to my blogsite as an image for visual impact.
The steps I took are:
Imported PDF into CS5. Options I chose are Anti-aliased, Resolution 300, Mode RGB, Bit Depth 16.
I changed the image size to 920 pixels for my blog.
I saved for web as a png with highest quality possible.
I uploaded and inserted to a blog post.
Strangely, in my preview screen the PNG image looks great! But when I view it in a web page, the text is quite blurry and looks terrible. Also, there is a direct link at the bottom of the post to the PDF and it looks great.
I would love any advice you have on uploading images with text to the web. I really don't want to re-create the info on my PDF into an actual image, but maybe that's what I need to do... Thanks in advance for your help.

Did you check to make sure your browser isn't zoomed? Make sure it's not some problem with just your system.
Another issue to research of is pixel snapping and the anti-aliasing methods for text.
i don't think you need to recreate the info on your PDF to an actual image. Try saving your png/jpg of your price list, etc. as 911 pixels wide. You can also try saving it/them as 72 resolution.
Sounds like the image is fine but it's being scaled up or down slightly on the web page.
You should be able to confirm this by comparing the image as shown on the page against the image alone (Firefox: right click the image on the page > View image; otherwise get the image's URL in the browser address bar).
If the bare image looks OK, that's the problem.
