I seem to be having a problem with jagged text when trying to design a webpage in PS. I have the resolution set to 72dpi because it is only for the web. However I have noticed that any text I add seems very jagged. I have tried applying smooth, criss etc which seems to fix it a little bit but not as good as it should. One strange thing I did notice was that I had added a text banner to my page which was jagged. Then later on I added another one and it seemed perfect. Im not sure what I did to the second one to make it better than the first lot of text I added.
I was wonder if anybody knew where i could go to design a free website. I dont even know where to start..so somewhere that pretty much lays out the steps to go through.
I've been working on my site and I thought it would be nice to get some opinion from other people about the design of it and how it will work with the coding in difficulty level. I'm trying to learn from my brother as he guides me through the coding part of it and does certain things but he's been extremely picky about the text so I've been trying to adjust my design slightly. Hahaha, this design is probably worse for the text than my last one was.
I'm trying to design a button and use it on my website, i have been on youtube and found a great video BUT... I want to make a button, and redo it about 30 times, the wording in the button will be... 1958, then 1959, then 1960, right the way to 1989, How do i make a blank button, then edit it 30 times without starting out from scratch, and how do i save each button without over writing the original blank "master" i have created.
I am a self thought user of CorelDraw11 and i have been having great fun using it. I now want to move a bit forward into something much more advanced. I want to design a website using CorelDraw11.
My question now is, is it possible to design a website using CorelDraw11?
when viewing pdfs exported from photoshop cs4 using acrobat pro 9. If I open single pdf, it's ok, but whenever I open another pdf, all text is jagged. Then if I close all pdfs and try opening the second one, it's ok again. It looks like acrobat is not able to render texts correctly in newly opened pdf when another pdf is already opened. This happens only with pdfs exported from photoshop (file->save as->pdf). It does not really matter if the first opened pdf is from photoshop or not, all other opened pdfs from photoshop are crapy. I tried different settings when saving pdf but the results are always the same - jagged type (it does not even look like aliased, it's completely screwed and unreadable) in second pdf. It is funny because text present as smart object from illustrator renders fine all the time. Therefor I think the problem is between photoshop export and acrobat, vectors are rendered with no problems. I tried opening on different pc (also with acrobat 9 pro) with the same result. Systems are vista on exporting pc, the second pc is running windows7 beta. However on the third pc with windows XP and adobe reader 9 everything works fine.
I created a new image 500x500 pixels at 72 pixels per inch resolution. However when I added some text to this image it came out all jagged and of poor quality.
I then created a new image with a resolution of 300 pixels and the text in this came out perfect, however where in the first image the text was about 18pt in the second image I had to drop the text down to about 9 point to be the same size. What resolution hould I be using for web page design and how do I get around the poor quality of lower resolution? I expect some drop in quality but the text at 72 pixels was no where near usable.
i've got some text in a sans-serif font that i'm trying to save as transparent gif. i'm using PS7's 'save for web' option. when i save it with a transparent background, it looks like crap when posted to a web page. when i save the exact same text, but with a background color, it looks great.
i need help on text that i just cant seem to get smoth edges. i tried saving it as gif, jpg,tiff. the thing is that i need transparency, not for the web but for a restaurant menu, when i save as gif, i get extremely bad edges, now as jpg the image is ok but i have the white background. im doing the layout in publisher, where i could click the with BG as transparent but i still get jagged edges.
everything was fine until I downloaded and opened an animated .gif in Photoshop 7.0 for manipulation. I'm not sure how .gifs work, so I just used the one frame of the animation that came up when I opened it. I did the job an everything turned out fine.
when I use the text function in Photoshop, the text always comes out pixelated and jagged.
My text in Photoshop is jagged unless I zoom in at 100%. When I do that it's normal. Also when I save as a file on my computer it's normal. I don't see other people with this issue, they get normal text by default. I haven't changed any settings, everything is as it is when you first get the program.
Had a colour effect that was being used and it was only achieved by using a 32bit colour space. However the text came out jagged in the render. I changed the text to 16bit and all was fine. So question is why would the text be jagged in 32bit is there a specific reason for that?
I made a button for my personal website, along with a "header" graphic. Nothing fancy, but I'm wondering how to center text in the middle of a circle I made. For example, I made a circle and want to put a D in it.
I am currently building a website using photoshop and dreamweaver for a uni project. I am using photoshop to produce the images & text which I then export as JPEG's into the layers in dreamweaver. Obviously as these are only JPEG images, none of the individual text is 'live' within the site, and I cant put in hyperlinks etc.
My question is: is there a way of making the images I create 'live' when they are online, so the end user could copy text from the site, or click on a hyperlink? Either with photoshop or with imageready?
I'm trying to save a website template. I've made the appropriate slices to save sections of the canvas as individual images. In its current state, all the text is saved as an image. Accordingly to make any changes to the text I need to do all the editing in Photoshop. I would like to be able to save just the images and have text fields that are editable in Frontpage or Dreamweaver.
In Dreamweaver tried simply deleting the image splices that contained text and inserting a text box. When I do so all the other images become misaligned and my whole webpage is screwed up. I would also like the text area to be adjusable. Is there any way to make the surrounding images adjustable to accomodate more lines of text without losing the alignment of the images?
making an image that has only text and a transparent background. I want to use this as a banner/logo for my website and would like the "text" to sit on top of my site background.
I have tried several things that I know of in PS CC, but when I upload it to my website I get the text siting on a white background, thus my site background does not show through.
If I the image map I use for my website.....could have copyable text.
For instance.... here is a link to a page on my website...the whole body of the webpage is a png image that I made using gimp and the image map option. The problem is that the text is not copyable...since it is part of the image. Is there a way to keep the format as it is, but make the test copyable as if it were a website made by the regular, HTML programming way?
I'm thinking that I learned this once in a tutorial but is this possible? I know you can use the SAVE FOR WEB and make a link but can you also do something else to just make the text IN the graphic so that it's selectable or still becomes visible to search engines or searches? I made a graphic in Illustrator but really want the text to be selectable on the site still....
I am trying to create a text design of 4 letters, and I want it to be 3d and look like it has been punched out of a rock, with cracks like a real rock.
I am trying to learn how to write or design text letters using images for instance I want to know how i would write Photoshop using noodles or electricity wires.
I have created a background for a flyer I am making, but would like to add text that takes on the design of the background. So imagine that the background is a piece of cloth, if you placed you hand under the cloth the cloth would take on the impression of the hand. So the text would be poppin' out at the viewer from what would look like underneath the background. Something similar to this. I have seen it on other flyers and was just wondering how it is done.
I needed to design hebrew text so I just down loaded Illustrator cc. But I don't have the "middle eastern composer" in my illustrator. How can I get that? I looked illustrator instruction manual. It wasn't same as my illustrator cc. And feel so stressful now. How come adobe's manual is different than what I have.
I wanted to use the program to design a robot for our school vex competition. Vex has provided cad files for all the parts. So, how i can import the seperate parts into one design. I can only open each part individually but cant find a way to combine them so can assemble the robot in one design.
When I want to delete the background and just have the object or person in the picture, I use the magic wand tool to delete the background then clean up with the eraser. BUT the outline of the object always looks jaggedy. This doesn't happen when I use photographs with the white background.
Is there some sort of trick I'm missing? Or do I just need more practice with the eraser tool?
i have a a problem i'm hoping someone can help me with. i've been using photoshop for awhile now and have had it installed on my computer for at least 3 years without problems. however, just the other day i've started having a problem with my fonts. whenever i use text, the edges of the text have a jagged appearance. they have a very pixilated look to them instead of smooth lines. i havent been doing anything differently nor have i changed any settings. this is happening with all of the fonts. anyone have any idea what's going on and what i can do?
When importing an EPS or AI file and then rasterizing it (doesn’t matter what resolution) the image looks very jagged/pixilated… even and 600res - a lot mort than it should – or should I say used to when I imported. Did I accidentally mess with the settings? Anyone experience this?btw this website always seems so SLOW acting (for the past 5 years)
I want to create a ICO file from a GIF format image. It becomes ugly when I convert it from PSD to GIF, with a transparent background (fig 001.jpg). I want the edge of the circle smoother as it is in PSD file (fig. 002.jpg).
