When I drag graphics from my CC library into In-design they display pixelated and also print pixelated. Any ideas?

Thanks!

    Is your display performance set to High Quality? (look under the View Menu) If you're printing to a desktop laser of inkjet printer it can often use just the screen resolution rather than the actual image data so if it looks bad on screen it may also look bad in print.

    Yup, it's on high quality display and still appearing pixelated. I have the same issue with all assets from cc libraries. Is that just a big with the libraries?

    What kind of graphics are they (from Illustrator or images from Photoshop?) If images, what is their resolution (view with the Info panel to see)? If Illustrator, what happens if you use File > Place instead, turning on Show Import Options to turn on a transparent background.
