    Hey all im wondering if you could help me i have to make a add for a friend but ive ran into a problem. Basically when i export from photoshop to a jpeg file the image is all squashed and i have no clue why? The strange thing is that when im in photoshop everything is normal but when exported it turns out squashed? Ive been given certain sizes in mm and inputted them when creating a new project at 130mm x 50mm. Ive smitted two photos below to show you whats happening.

    Thanks a mill

    Check the pixel aspect ratio of your document.

    Ah brilliant thanks a mill I had it on HD 1080 for some reason! While I have you is it always best to do say 300 res to keep the picture as clear and pixel free?

    Sure, 300dpi is fine. For that kind of image I would consider vector however.
