Reply To: Export as JPEG gives bugged results.

JPEG export from InDesign is notoriously awful. It just doesn't work as well as other programs, like Illustrator, photoshop or Acrobat.

I find that firstly exporting the document to High Quality PDF setting. Then open that PDF in Photoshop choosing the same resolution (300 ppi) for the quality.

Then use File>Save As>Jpg

I do not recommend JPG for professionally printed files. Obviously PDF is better and will print a lot sharper.

I on the other hand use the above method for creating adverts for Email Campaigns. Despite our e-newsletter software allowing Text along with Images – I still have to supply Artwork for adverts in JPEG! Which seems mental to me and bloats the email, where text would be more efficient in both clarity and file size.

But these are the things we have to put up with – right!?
