How do i get rid of jagged lines?
Circles and diagonal lines look rubbish when i am in hidden view which i use for simple 3d black / white (i think this is the best way?).
I have tried:
- viewres (1000, 5000, 10000, 20000 sightly better)
- regen
See examples.

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?
View 3 Replies View RelatedWhen 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.

View 9 Replies View Relatedwhen 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.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI 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.
Yesterday I needed to design a quick business card for the band that i work for. It's super basic, just the band's logo on the front of the card and their web address on the back. The problem I had was that the curves in the logo were jagged and not smooth; I was only able to smooth the edges by adding a stroke to the logo.
My question is, how do you make curves not look all jagged? This is the version of the card that is being printed so you can see the logo.
I've been using photoshop for about five years now, but I've just started to get into freehand drawing mainly as a way to hone my skills for my Flash animations. Everything was going fine until I hit a bit of a speedbump. When I start to draw curves by hand, the beginning is always jagged. There will be a straight line that makes a sharp turn and then goes into the ellipse that I want. I turned off smoothing. I'm using a Wacom Bamboo Graphics Tablet, Is there some brush configuration that I should be using to stop this from happening?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm working on a logo and I extruded some type. The curving of the font is not correct. Looks squared off a bit. The font is Trajan Pro...Is this because the type is too small? I pasted the logo from Illustrator and converted it to a smart object.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI create a lot of 'cartoon type" images in Photoshop using Stroke. After upgrading to from CS2 to CS5 I noticed that when I use stroke to outline my images, the stroke is jagged. This was not an issue in CS2. I have pasted an image below with just a simple shape. The shape is smooth, the stroke is jagged.

This below image is a bit small but you can see the difference in Stroke, the shoe from CS2 is smooth, the mountain from CS5 is jagged.
I resized down my HD pictures (2k pixels) to 500px and this is the result. It looks like raw looks like a big picture resized down in browser without actually rasterizing it(??)

I am designing a site that uses a lot of irregular shapes, but cant seem to get angled lines to show up smooth. They are coming out very jagged. Any idea how to smooth the lines out? Tips for Photoshop or Illustrator would be great. Thanks!

As the title says, lately my photoshop has been displaying rotated images with jagged/distorted edges. Now, I have not had this problem previously in the 8years I have been using photoshop, I am sure there is a simple fix to this, which I haven't really tried to fix. Any help would be apprecaited. I'm wondering if it is my monitor..?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have CS3 but just got the trial for CS4 now as well. I have been having a problem with photoshop CS3 for quite some while but accounted to Photoshop in general until I started using CS4 today. When I import a tiff (after working on the NEF/RAW in Nikon Capture NX2) into CS3, the image appears with very hard and jagged edges (eg. along the outlines of a face, cloth, etc.) instead of being smooth. In NX2, these edges are smooth, but not in CS3. Moreso, when viewing the same tiff in CS4, the edges ARE smooth and don't have this jagged or extra hard look. I guess this can also seem like it is extra over sharp. You can notice it at 16 percent, but also at 40 percent and more magnified as well.

View 1 Replies View Relatedeverything 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.

when I use the text function in Photoshop, the text always comes out pixelated and jagged.
I'm trying to take images that are about 300x300px and convert to 100x100px. When I change image size in PS and constrain proportions, the result is a jagged-looking image.
The resolution is set to 72 px/inch and the Resample Image box is set to Bicubic.
Am I always gonna have jaggies in this scenario and what can I do to make it look smoother? Also, does it make a difference if it's gif vs. jpg?
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.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a gif (as below) and I am trying to remove the strip of yellow you can see diagonally. the image was originally a fawn/yellow/brown colour, but using the 'Replace Colour' tool, I have managed to colour most of it in blue - apart from that yellow strip you can see.

When the image is magnified, the diagonal strip of yellow under the blue appears with the edges all jagged and it looks untidy. Is there a way to make them smoother, or should I begin by doing the whole thing in a different way? I am using Photoshop Version 8.
I've recently started creating brushes to share/sell. I scan vintage documents to create brush sets. As the vintage documents often have fading text/illustrations on yellowed backgrounds, I have to really up the contrast. I usually use levels rather than threshold as I prefer the control I get with levels.

Anyway, sometimes the result looks rather jagged. I'm working from high resolution scans.I've noticed if I apply a .3 Gaussian Blur it smooths things out a bit. Does this look normal for a brush?
I'm working on a social media icon rollover png. I need the bottom row of icons to be slightly lighter than the top row for a mouse over effect. I know this is probably something easy I'm screwing up, but when I use bucket fill to change color, I get that circular jagged edge look.
What's the secret to changing the color of a circular object without the jagged edges?
Added attachment below where you can see the jagged effect - I just bucket filled with the lighter color.

I am creating an image border using the rectangle marquee, and making it jagged by applying a Stylize > Wind filter to it.
Using Wind there is no way to adjust the jagged edges, is there any kind of third party plugin that gives me more editing features?
