Hello - have a graphic and want to export it as best quality possible png.

it's placed on an artboard with lots of other graphics. I've selected the graphic, and exported the selection, and chose 4x for scale. However, when i make it larger, it looks slighted bit-mapped.

would there be any difference in placing it on its own artboard and using "export as" where there are choices for resolution?

what is the best way to get a good resolution for this graphic? it does have text in it.

THANKS to anyone who answers; you are appreciated!!!!

You cannot enlarge a PNG beyond a certain scale.

If you want to be able to enlarge it, give it a higher resolution = more pixels.

if i exported it at a higher resolution, does that mean it will have more pixels? or should i enlarge the original graphic before exporting? (thinking that would give it more pixels) . . . thanks for your thoughts

It's for a sign? Doesn't the printer accept a PDF?

i use a photo place that does an amazing, quick, and inexpensive job for posterboard signs - but take jpgs only.
