Blurry Logo despite being pixel perfect

Hi there,

 

I try to export a pixel perfect figurative mark as an .png. The sizes are dividable by 4 and everything lays on even pixels, the grid is 4dp

 

 

However exporting the image results always in blurry edges. I tried to export the file in 72ppi, 144ppi and 320ppi, used optimized anti-alias for images etc..

I made Artboards exports, Export as and Export for Web. Nothing works. I do not know what to do anymore. Is there anyone who could help me. (Screenshots attached).

 

 

Thank you so much for your help!

Thank you. I used the Windows 10 image viewer to look if it is perfect. The Logos will be used by my coworkers in programms like Word. That's why I wanted to test it.


The Windows Photos app appears to apply its own anti-aliasing/blur at high zoom levels. I don't think it's a reliable viewer in this case.

A JPEG will always look slightly soft. It's inherent in how the compression works. You have to use PNG, GIF or any other uncompressed format.

Hi Mylenium,

 

unfortunately I exported the Logo as a .png.
