A troubled designer with file format problems!

When working in Adobe Photoshop, making up graphics to be used within other DTP applications, I have tried using various file formats, and exporting methods. The work is saved at least at 300dpi, and looks fine on screen, however when I receive the work back from the printers, it is no longer sharp and appears "soft" and blurred. I don't believe is has anything to do the image size or resolution. I think it is the file formats. Anyone know where I am going wrong?

Why not contact the printers and ask them which file formats will suite your needs?
