I originally did it in photoshop with 300 ppi and 1200 x 628 pixels....and it had the same result.... it was blurry while trying to export...so i moved to indesign to see if i could solve the problem but had the same issue.
You don't have enough pixels to have a clearer image. What you want to do is impossible.
Your options at 1200 x 628 is to export with or without antialiasing, that's about it.
What CAN help you is to export at a higher resolution to start, say export at 300ppi PNG... open this in Photoshop then rescale (Change Image Size) down to your final 1200 x 628 dimensions. The type will still be anitaliased at that size and "blurry", but you may like the results better depending on which interpolation method you select for Resample. In my example, this is what your image could look like at 1200 x 628 using 3 different interpolation methods (the top one is "Bicubic (smooth gradients)"; the middle one is "Bicubic sharper (reduction)"; and the last one is "nearest neighbour" which gives the highest contrast on type, but it ain't pretty. You WANT antialiasing to trick the eye to see smoother type.
