  • Font in Photoshop

    Hey guys,

    Whenever I add font to something in Photoshop, it looks really hmm.. how to put this.. Distorted? pixelated? So I put the anti-aliasing on smooth and it then looked really blurry. Its really bothering me, makes anything I create in Photoshop look ****. I have emailed someone about it ages ago, but had no answer. Was wondering if anyone here knew?
    Below is a pic of what I mean:


    Regards
    Teri

      No I havent.. Karen, how would I do that?
      When I was in college, my teacher told me some steps which sorted it out, but I cant for the life of me remember what she did and she is no longer at the college. I think it had something to do with the resolution, but doubt it is that.

      Thanks for the reply

        What kind of photoshop Teri?

        Are you using TT fonts?

        Does your final product look like this after you have saved it? What format have you saved it in?

          LadyEye, I use Photoshop 7.0. On the screen shot, it shows that I am using Century Gothic which is indeed a TT font and I ge the same result as the screen shot when I save the image as a .Jpg / .bmp

                I had mine set to *****, although smooth didn't seem to make any difference???

                I think it has to do when you save it as a .gif .. ??

                  That is totally different to what I get. I dont save stuff as .gif so cant be that. Maybe some settings have changed or something? I'll uninstall it and re install it tomorrow, see if that helps. Thanks for the help LadyEye :)

                              When I start a blank document in Photoshop, the "default" resoultion is 72. I just think that Photoshop hates me lol.
