Currently large diagrams are hard to export with good quality because of the memory limitation in WritableBitmap when the DPI is increased. -- One option is to use BitMapCacheBrush (discussed here http://www.telerik.com/forums/low-resolution-using-exporttoimage-on-big-diagram) -- Another option is to export multiple images of the diagram which cover it all. Then possibly combine these pictures into one. -- Also , you can try increasing the operating memory of your Visual Studio
