      Every file that I export out of Photoshop and Illustrator looks Pixelated. Is there a way to have text look smooth for import into Muse. When I do import to Muse and test on iPhone text looks destorted.

          Is there any particular reason that you're having text used in images that you're then exporting from PS and AI?

          Surely this text could be applied in Muse, where it will form a better HTML file that will be searchable and allow your site to be crawled and indexed better by Google, etc?

           

          Basically, just about EVERYTHING that has text in it, once it's exported into a JPG, GIF, PNG ect will end up looking just a touch fuzzy once it's reduced to 72dpi. You would be far better applying any text within Muse itself using web safe typefaces or Typekit instead.

           

          If you are insistant on having text used in images; are you using the "Export for Web and Devices" feature in PS and AI?
