Now i need to save this "Graph image: to .jpeg format.when i am saving this the resolution is very low on the saved file.how can i overcome this problem? is there any solution to increase the Resolution of the image before saving.

Please help.....

code sample which i am using to save the image to file is

ImageFormat format = ImageFormat.JPEG ;
SaveFileDialog sfd = new SaveFileDialog();
sfd.Filter = JPEGFiles(*.jpg)|*.jpg";
if (sfd.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
{ // now save the image in the DrawArea
DrawArea.Save(sfd.FileName, format);

Bitmap b = new Bitmap(img.Width, img.Height, PixelFormat.Format32bppRgb);
Graphics g = Graphics.FromImage(b);
b.SetResolution(img.HorizontalResolution, img.VerticalResolution);

g.SmoothingMode = System.Drawing.Drawing2D.SmoothingMode.HighQuality;
g.InterpolationMode = System.Drawing.Drawing2D.InterpolationMode.High;

b.Save(filename, ImageFormat.Jpeg);

From the example, you can see you need decide the color resolution when creating bitmap
and then resolution at two direction for graph.

try it.

it would be better if I can see your code.

I think it is the way you draw those strings that makes you think they are not in good resolution.

can you change the font, background and foreground color?

Or what the size of your area? what the font size?
