Adobe Illustrator Help => Creating web comps

Hey all,

May be someone can help me with this small but annoying issue:

I usually create web comps in illustrator mainly because of its typographic controls: I experiment with paragraph styles, buttons styles...I even name my styles like html tags, h1, h2, p... lol.

Also selectibg blocks of text is a breeze in comparison to photoshop.

The only drawback is when I am ready to save for web the text and borders are bit fuzzy even though they don't lool like that when I am designing..(I use 72dpi, and alwsys snap to pixels) and it becomes a problem when showing clients.

I usually export the file in Photoshop and then re-export it..but I'd like to save that step (sometimes, Illustrator will render the text when exporting the text to psd)

Any ideas?

Thanks on advance

This is a tough one. I usually end up doing it in photoshop so I don't have much discrepancy between my work file and the graphics I show to clients. However, Illustrator is so much better at organizing the data and graphics together.

I'd love to hear more on this as well...
