Why does my online proof look blurry or grainy?

Online proofs are intentionally low resolution so they load quickly for a fast visual check, which is why they can look blurry or grainy on screen. The proof resolution is not a preview of your final print quality.

• Why it looks grainy: the proof is a lightweight, compressed image built for quick viewing.
• The reliable check: as long as the file team did not flag your files as low resolution, your final print will look clean.
• What actually prints: your high-resolution supplied file, not the proof image.

If you want extra reassurance, you can reject the proof and ask the file team to confirm your resolution.
