Image Quality photoshop cs5

[rockstar13]

Hi,

I am using a capture tool called snagit to capture images and edit them on to photoshop cs5. The problem I am having is the quality. When I paste the image on to photoshop it looses its sharpness. How do I keep the quality of the image when I paste it into photoshop? It seems to work fine when I past it into word.


Cheers

Russ

If you use print screen and paste in to photoshop does it have the same problem? It either sounds like you're not zoomed to 100% in Photoshop or snagit has some weird compression.

Also it would help if you could post an image of the problem.

Well, generally its an onscreen resolution issue. So to say if your onscreen resolution is 1440x900 and your using that image in a 2000 x 2000 image, it will loose its quality. I rarely have a quality issue with screenshots on Snagit, but I also do work with on high-resolution.

Or it maybe a settings issue :P.
