Hi!

When I export files from illustrator the quality is noticeable poor and pixelated. I am exporting to PNG ( image info attached). The first screen shot is from illustrator of the image and the quality is okay. When I export to png and open the image the quality is bad ( second image) and the third image is of the PNG image info. Can you please help me out to understand why this is happening?

You are not using vectors when you are exporting pngs and Illustrator is not the best program to deal with pngs. What are you using the graphic for? It might be best to create a pdf to maintain the vectors and you have flexibility for use.

It's for a logo. How do I export high quality logo in multiple file formats from illustrator?

Yash Yash,

If you are using it for both (CMYK) print and web/screen use, and if you wish to have consistent colours throughout, it is usually recommended to first create the artwork/logo in CMYK Color Mode (starting in that mode to prevent your being haunted by conversion induced issues), because there is a wide range of alluring RGB colours that will wither when converted to CMYK.

Then you can create a matching RGB version for web/screen use.

With regard to resolution issues for web/screen use, you could consider SVG if applicable, or double the resolution (one or more times) as suggested by Ton (some screens have 288 PPI, and the number may rise as everything does).
