Question

Font in image is blurred after rotating

As soon as I insert an image in InDesign (exported from InDesign before as PNG) and rotate it (already only 2%) the font on the image becomes blurred / pixelated / wavy. It's not the display performance, I have set it to high quality. How can I change/avoid that?

I had the same problem and ended up putting my picture of the cover of my whitepaper in Word. Then I chose the tilted frame option. Then I used the snipping tool (Press Windows logo key + Shift + S) and pasted it into Paint. Then I saved it as a jpg in Paint. Then I placed the jpg into InDesign and it worked perfectly. Hope that all makes sense! I'm glad I found this workaround.

Why are you doing that? Export a PDF if you need a section of an InDesign page and place that.
