How to create symbols as mapping art using high res raster images 1

[zoeperhoeb]

I would like to know how I can create symbols using high res images which have to remain its high resolution when placed as a mapping on a 3d object, using the 3d effect extrude and bevel? I used the 3d effect with a symbol mapping on it, but it seems that somehow my highres raster image is converted to a low res image. I would like to know if it's possible and if so, I would like to know how I should work with it. Please help me out, big thanx in advance.

You might try Selecting the image and going to Object Menu/Rasterize and assign the desired DPI.

You can also go to Effect menu/Document Raster Settings anset that.

Don't rasterize until you've finished any work. Set you Document Raser settings before impoting raster images from other apps.
