Why are pre-built graphics blurry on retina displays?

I have designed multiple vector infographics in Inkpad (iPad app) and imported them into Adobe Muse. The desktop version of graphics looks great. iPad version is blurry and pixelated.
No matter how I export the grpahics (ie: .png, .jpeg, .gif) it is always way below par on iPad. I have also tried making the images much larger in AI, still nothing is working. This is extremely frustrating and seems like it should be more simple. Is there a work around for importing .svg into muse sites via the "Insert HTML" feature?
So far I have had the best luck saving in PNG-24

Do they still look blurry on the "best" setting for Retina?
The problem I see is, there are many applications around that were created a decade ago, and the developers have moved on. These are still valuable applications for many people. Are they just always going to look crappy on the Retina MacBook? That sounds pretty undesirable.
The difference with the iPhone is, the Retina was an upgrade, but didn't make existing applications look worse.

  • Powerpoint like pre-built graphics on Keynote?

    So, I looked for this everywhere and can't seem to find it. In Office 2008, the Power Point has these pre-built graphics that are not charts, but rather are flow charts and interesting graphics...and are usually using a color scheme that is congruent with the overall theme of the presentatioon However, from what I can see, KeyNote has the charts and tables, but no other types of pre-built graphics...so I end up having to do them from scratch using the shapes option. This is so time consuming! Is there anything like this feature on Keynote?
    Thanks!

    These graphics and themes are compatible with Keynote...

  • Why are previews in Bridge blurry (not rendering properly)?

    Why are previews in Bridge blurry (not rendering properly)?
    I found a simple answer to this question: control click on the thumbnail and select "purge cache for selection"
    After years of intermittently having this problem, this solved the issue. I had just finished a fresh install of main sys hd (new hd) and first time opening bridge encountered this issue again after not having the problem for a few years.
    Hope this helps others.

  • Why are pre-order downloads delayed?

    I pre-ordered Madonna's MDNA to get the single nearly two months ago.  The album went on regular sale this morning, but it is still not possible to download the pre-order.  Why are pre-order customers forced to wait when regular customers can download straight away?  When am I going to be able to download the album?  Really unimpressed with this iTunes.

    Same problem!!! I have sent them an E-mail...really disapointed!! Grr!!
    Good thing I also bought the CD i guess....
    Still really cheesed off!!

  • Why is the australian MacBook pro with retina display far more expensive then the American one when the Australian dollar is much stronger

    Why is the australian MacBook pro with retina display far more expensive then the American one when the Australian dollar is much stronger

    this is a user response forum, i'm not sure what you think we will know. Apple doesn't reply here. you would probably have to contact the main Apple HQ in Australia to have a chance to get any kind of answer.

  • Why dont the Mac Pro's with Retina Displays have a CD/DVD drive?

    Why dont the Mac Pro's with Retina Displays have a CD/DVD drive? Will Apple eventually stop producing CD/DVD drives?

    Because Apple did not put one in there.
    Will Apple eventually stop producing CD/DVD drives?
    We can't really answer that, but it would not surprise me. More and more of the computers being produced by Apple lack an internal optical drive. If you really need one, get an external such as LowLuster suggests.
    Best of luck.

  • Why are my ipad photos blurry

    Why are my ipad photos blurry

    They were probably taken in low light, the brighter the lighting the better the photo. Lower light levels require the shutter to be open longer which require the camera to be held steady for a longer period of time. If you move the photo is blurred. So you will have to be more steady when taking the photo indoors or you will get blurring.
    The same is true for all cameras and why they have a flash. More expensive cameras with better lenses and larger sensors will work better in lower light, but still can require a tripod to minimize any movement which can cause blurring.

  • Acrobat XIPro Blurry with retina Display MBP

    I have the new 15" MBP with retina display and my PDF documents, when opened in Acrobat XIPro, look extremely blurry even when the majority of the file is vector based graphics. In fact, the entire Acrobat interface is extremely blurry. The file looks crisp and clear when displayed using Apple's Display Software. Is there a fix? Is Adobe behind on an update to this problem? I've already messed around with the preferences to no avail. Thanks for your help...

    Hi,
    The experience described above mentionning crystal clear UI but some blurry text in the PDF is consistent:
    With Acrobat and Reader 11.0.1 we have improved the user interface so that it supports retina display. If the UI looks sluggish, it means you have 11 or an earlier version then please upgrade to 11.0.1. It should fix it.
    However the rendering of the PDF itself is more of a long run and will be available with a future release (likely 11.0.4).
    That being said I'd appreciate your help regarding the different issues you seem to experience:
    Placing Reader and another Retina ready application (let's pick Preview) side by side, it doesn't jump to my eyes that the rendering is 'sluggish'. There is a significant difference indeed, but if settings are correct the pixel size in Acrobat/Reader should be the same than it is on a non-retina display which is acceptable - that's how Mac OS supports non retina applications and it works pretty well for most people.
    If it looks worst than that, it's very likely that some settings for display/resolution in Mac OS have been changed to use larger fonts, then the pixel ratio (which is 2 by default for a non retina app rendering on a retina display) can be pushed to 3, 4 or even more, and it then looks really bad.
    Can you share your display settings?
    I have a picture of head anatomy that looks pretty sharp and renders beautifully fast, and a 28MB 3D PDF of a head anatomy that barely displays at 3 frames per second. The 3D looks very sharp on my retina display. What kind of PDF is the head anatomy you refer to? Can you share your file with me? Maybe I'm missing something and any help would be useful!
    G. Miles seems to mention some performance issues? 11.0.1 runs smoothly on my two Mac laptops - one is a 4 year old Mac Book Pro, the other one is a 15' Retina. I'd be curious to know what files you are viewing, in which resolution, and anything that can be of value for us to investigate and improve your experience. Can you share a file with us?
    Finally, as for the delay responding to Retina support (and I apologize for taking several weeks to answer this thread) it's a different story to perfectly render PDF including all the entities and rendering modes it supports. In order to ship Acrobat or Reader with an official support for Retina display, this includes everything PDF supports, unlike other applications mentionned above which usually support PDF 1.4 best case (the current standard is 1.7). This includes multimedia, 3D, forms, etc.
    Thanks,
    Luc

  • What are the best settings for a retina display image?

    If we Export for Web then view it on a retina display monitor, the image lines look blurry and it's not as crisp as non-retina display monitors.
    What are the best settings when intended for retina display monitors while keeping the file size down?
    Thanks!

    Mark, yes a DVD will play back on a HDTV, just the quality will not match the capability of the playback device. This is certainly the easiest approach though.
    As the article you referenced says, ensuring that your previews are set to a larger pixel dimension than your required output will ensure maximum quality, given that you will more than likely have movement on the images in the slide show I would suggest going with pixel dimensions that are at least 1920px.
    Let us know how you go.

  • Garageband is still blurry with Retina Display

    How come they haven't fixed the blurriness in Garageband? I have been all over the web, and people boast how Garageband is optimized for the new retina-display. Sure, the text is fine - but it isn't exactly the text I will be viewing... All the images are just as blurry as many of the websites I encounter on the internet.

    How helpful you are. I didn't know that Retina questions belonged in the GarageBand forum.

  • Why doesn't macbook pro 2.3GHz Retina display have hard drive configuration?

    When I'm about to order the macbook pro 2.3Ghz Retina display in the apple.com website. there are no hard drive configuration. the hardware configuration are only memory, apple usb super drive and apple thunderbolt. but no hardrive. why?

    Because that is the base model of the Retina Edition.
    The Retina Edition doesn't come with a Hard Drive.  It uses a Flash Drive.
    If you want a larger flash drive, you have to step up to the next model.

  • Why can't we have superdrive and retina display and HDMI in one macbook pro?

    Its good to have a lighter macbook pro for those who don't need the superdrive....BUT, What about those (like myself) who desperately want a superdrive in their macbook pro and also the retina display!!  And, Why can't we have a regular HDMI in macbook pro with a superdrive....this is so frustrating!  Whats wrong with apple!

    I might actually buy a windows laptop.  So sad.
    No need, as long as Apple continues to offer a notebook line-up that includes built-in optical drives, to buy a Windows machine... yet.
    As I said, the only thing that I use my SuperDrive for now is backups of all those digital software deliveries, documents, etc. If I finally break down and buy an external Blu-ray drive, I won't use the SuperDrive at all. But right now I have almost 12 years of back-ups on DVD, both single and dual layer - so, for now, I need my optical drive.
    I'm hoping that - one day - Apple will sell MacBook Pros with Blu-ray drives. Hey, I can wish, right?

  • Why ipad mini released with a non-retina display.. The only reason i didn't buy that..

    I was so much after the ipad mini..
    but released with the non-retina display and this put me down a lot and I didnt buy this one at all.
    Now I am looking one but with a larger screen and where i can use that as a phone around 4.5" min.
    Thanks

    There are a few "phablets", small tablets that are also phones, but Apple does not make one. Thus far these "phablets" are not proving to be very popular, but if you think one would meet your needs, by all means look into them.

  • Netbeans 7.4 blurry on retina display .

  • Grid lines and guide lines are too thin and not visible (Retina display)

    How do I increase the "thickness" of them? I have no other idea how to make them more visible. They are just not visible enough.
    I have tried every color. They are so thin with the settings I'm using for the display (I can't change the settings to smaller resolution)
    On the solid color they are ok, but besides that... almost useless (and the grid, and the guides).

    I asked about your Photoshop version to make sure it would have Retina display support.  I use Windows with a 30inch 1920x1200 main display, but just tried the Photoshop 200% UI feature, and while it made the Photoshop UI nice and chunky, Guides were still just one pixel wide.  So AFAICT the only workaround is to change the guide colour.
    If it is a big problem, start a thread on Photoshop feedback site, or search the existing threads to see what has already been said about guides.
