Export of VISO for a Map Background looks terrible?

Question

Hello,

What are the recommended settings for an export of a visio drawing that I can use as a network map?  If I save to gif or jpg the stencils I used don't look right, they look just fuzzy almost..

I tried using the "source, screen, or custom" options when it asks in Visio when saving it as one of these formats.

Trying to make a good looking map in map maker is a nightmare to say the least.

Thx, do you have any sample maps from map maker with a visio background you could post or send me?

I haven't tried PNG but I will.  I am using Visio 2007, and when the map is put up it looks OK, the problem is trying to display the map on a large screen lcd tv and expanding the size makes the map look horrible.

Personally, I always use PNG, because it handles fonts much better without making them look fuzzy.
