    Try the photography of computing fora, you might get better help there

    EDIT; sounds like you are saving the images as a different file-type when you use them. Try to use the same software in work as at home to preserve the quality too.

    If you are talking about using images from the Internet in printed materials then images online are usually only 72 dots per inch (dpi) so look fine on a screen. Printed image usually need at least 300 dpi.
    See here or here for a explanation.

    Also just downloading images from the Internet and using them commercially (or for any use really) could be a violation of the owners copyright and could get you and your company in serious trouble.

    However if you are talking about images you have created with an application or have taken with a digital camera and are using in printed material you need to check that the image you are creating/saving/using has a resolution greater than 300dpi before you can print it.

    The Digital Art/Design
    forum might be a better place to ask.
