Resizing image in X6

[someguy]

Hi all,
Any chance someone could explain to me what I'm doing wrong resizing an image, or point me to a tutorial that explains what I should be doing?

I use X6 to cleanup PDF files that have been converted to .JPG files and then import them into a program to create graphic pages for a building automation system.
The problem I have is that the files when converted are quite large and I need to scale them down to around 1000x700 pixels.
When I resize them they end up being quite blurry and the lines look very soft. However, when I have the image opened and click the button to fit the image to my screen size, it looks perfect with nice clean lines. How can it be displayed in a size that fits the window perfectly, but when I resize it it looks horrible?
I can get better results opening the image in X6 and then using the snipping tool. I know I'm doing something wrong, but I'm not sure what.
Any help would be appreciated!
Dan

Are they blurry after the resizing or only after you have saved them and reloaded them.
Have you checked your compression (under Options) when you do a Save As. Best quality will be at about low single numbers. The default may have been left at 20 which compresses too much.
