Pixel or rasterized artwork is any artwork made out of individual pixels. This means the artwork has a limited quality. Quality is measured in pixels per inch (PPI) or dots per inch (DPI). We recommend a minimum print quality of 300dpi/300ppi. (See example below) When the artwork is edited or scaled this effects the quality of the artwork. (See example below). Pixel artwork tends to be images and pictures with gradients. Pixel artwork scaled 100%. Image becomes blurred, loses quality which creates jagged edges.
