I wasn't sure if this belonged here or in the Optimization forum so if I erred, can a staff member move the thread for me? Thanks.

As you can see, the stroke is jagged - especially above the T and the R.

I can't use a different font. Hopefully somebody can help me out here, this is a skill I need to know anyway - since I do use a lot of stroked text in my designs. Thanks in advance.

I have a feeling it is the font that you used, try standards like Arial or others and then compare them to the font you are currently using.

I think it is because you used the warp tool on the text. I gave up using that tool because of that problem. Now if I want to curve some text I create a path of the shape I want and then type to the path. It gives a much better result.

Does anyone know if you can make a stroke not rounded? All i want to do it make a stroke on a box on the OUTSIDE of it without having to have the rounded corners. I know it isn't rounded if you do an inside stroke but it cuts to much into the picture. Anyone know if this is possible?

Thanks

Nathan
