The most important point when exporting to an image is to set an appropriate export resolution. Personally, when I export battlemaps, I export them at a minimum of 100 pixels per grid square (usually 5' squares) for a decent quality. Of course, the higher the resolution, the larger the image, so you will often need to consider the tradeoff between quality and smaller file size if you are using it online in a VTT or similar unless everyone involved have very fast connections.

Png is the better format, but it is also about 6 times as large as jpg, so often even if jpg is a lower quality for the same size image, you can get a better export overall at the same file size with jpg because you can go higher in the resolution.

But in any case, you will never get the same quality of an image as you get in CC3+. An image consists of a fixed set with pixels, and quality will always decrease as you zoom in. To a certain degree, that is true in CC3+ too, but CC3+ keeps a set of 4 images around for each fill and symbol, and shows you a better version as you zoom in, something you cannot get in an image format.

It will alternate overwriting the same autosave file. so you do need to be careful with that when running multiple instances.

Missing symbols means that one or more of the zip files was either not extracted at all, or extracted to the wrong location.

Common problems here is to let your unzip utility make a directory based on the name of the archive and then put everything inside this extra directory. This is a common behaviour, and causes havock when cc3+ looks for the files since they won't be where expected.

Best way to check for such things is to click once on one of those symbols, and then go to Symbols -> Symbol manager and find the symbol there. Select it and click list. This should reveal the expected file path of the image. Remember that @ refers to the CC3+ data directory. Now dig in there and look for the symbols. You'll probably find them inside some extra directory. If you fail to find them at all, it means you skipped a .zip file. The path should help you pinpoint which.
