Hi Dominic, Leonard
excuse me from dropping in the thread but Dominic I believe, what Leonard says
(...JPEG (Joint PHOTOGRAPHIC Expert > > Group) file format is NOT suitable for
non-photo data....) is true and is the cause of your problem.
First I undestand "distort" can mean different things to different people. For
me it's geometry that'a affected by distortion, but from your post I conclude
that by distortion" you refer to "blur" of some linear elements in the image -
graphics and text - that get blurred and even more so the curved segments. By
"blurring" I think you refer to the edges of these elements. (Excuse me if I am
wrong).
That make sense if you consider the old JPEG algorithm (JPEG2000 wavelet
encoding is different), and why this is not suitable for such artwork.
Then, are you using any antialias options?
