Fraction Alignment in Plot Export to JPG

Question

I've produced some plots that have fractional tick labels on the horizontal axis and they look fine.

Plot[Sin[x], {x, 0, 2 Pi}, 
 Ticks -> {Range[0, 2 Pi, Pi/6], {-1, 0, 1}}]

enter image description here

However, when I export the plot with

Export["Graph2.jpg",drag graph picture here, ImageResolution->300]

the fraction alignment goes off.

enter image description here

Is there a way to keep the fraction alignment the same in a jpg?

What version are you using and how do you export? Export["test.jpg", plot] looks normal for me with v8.0.4 linux — ssch, Sep 23 '13 at 16:51
I'm using Windows 7 and the command I've used is Export["Graph2.jpg",drag graph picture here, ImageResolution->300] — keystonethewizard, Sep 23 '13 at 17:01
@keystonethewizard Yup, your output is the same here. Try ssch's command — Dr. belisarius, Sep 23 '13 at 17:04

How do I name the graph "plot"? Right now it just exports the word as a picture. Sorry, really new to this. — keystonethewizard, Sep 23 '13 at 17:05
Really easy plot = Plot[Sin[x], {x, 0, 2 Pi}, Ticks -> {Range[0, 2 Pi, Pi/6], {-1, 0, 1}}] — Dr. belisarius, Sep 23 '13 at 17:07
Export["Graph2.jpg", plot] seems to work but Export["Graph2.jpg", plot, ImageResolution -> 300] is still funny. Is there another way to specify the resolution? — keystonethewizard, Sep 23 '13 at 17:13

@ssch I marked it as a dup, because the same procedure solves this issue too. But now I doubt, because both questions are quite different — Dr. belisarius, Sep 23 '13 at 17:42
@ssch Using Export["Graph3.jpg", Rasterize[plot, RasterSize -> 3000]] fixes the resolution but brings back the alignment issue. Did I miss what you were suggesting? — keystonethewizard, Sep 23 '13 at 17:53
Something like: Export["Graphics2.jpg", First@ImportString[ExportString[plot, "PDF"]], ImageResolution -> 300] However you might find the ImageSize option satisfactory to avoid that mess — ssch, Sep 23 '13 at 18:10

Adapting this answer for Export instead of Rasterize:

plot = Plot[Sin[x], {x, 0, 2 Pi}, Ticks -> {Range[0, 2 Pi, Pi/6], {-1, 0, 1}}];

Export[
  "Graph2.jpg",
  First@ImportString[ExportString[plot, "PDF"]],
  ImageResolution -> 300]

output
