I have made a symbol in Adobe Illustrator to use for a custom picture marker. The thing is when I select these markers and put them in my map the get blurry. I have tried several image formats such as .png .jpg .emf and .bmp. But no succes. 

I was looking if there is a way to use a .svg file, but with no result.

Thanks,

Lout

did you try the emf format as suggested Creating marker symbols—Help | ArcGIS for Desktop and what was the size of the picture... you might want to compare your extents to those in the sample folder in the link

Yes, I did try that. I have tried the sizes 16x16, 40x40 and 100x100 just to be sure. Al appear blurry.
