Question

Export losing quality even using PNG and 2X higher

I am trying to use Figma as my main software to produce my designs.
But my frames are being exported with a bad resolution from Figma.
Exporting as PNG and even using 2X is not getting the full resolution as I see on Figma.

Anyone with the same issue?

Can you show an example of the bad export quality and the original Figma file link?

Hey @Patrick6,

Can you show an example of the bad export quality and your original Figma file link?

The first picture is a screenshot taken at 100% in Figma. The second picture is the same frame but exported normally.

Even without this comparison I have the impression that the normal export is not crisp.

Can you share the Figma file link?

Is there a way to share it privately?

Everything seems normal to me when exporting your file. At 1x I see some pixelation when viewing the exported image compared to Figma, but that’s because I use a Retina (high-res) display. Do you too? Or maybe you just use a custom DPI in display settings? You can enable pixel preview in Figma to see how the images would look like when exported:

Yeah I’m having this same issue. All my png exports are super low res. It is with great shame that I’m installing Photoshop on this machine to finish my work…

I am having the same issue… created the exact same file in photoshop and it is a lot better. If anyone finds a way to fix it that would be amazing! I really want to be able to use Figma over photoshop
