*newbie here*

it seems that the smaller the text i use the worst it looks, is there anyway i can reduce the amount of anti-aliaseding as it were on text so it appears sharper? ive tryed changing the methods but its still a long way from perfect Confused

well don't know if this is a real help, but recently i had to make very
small text on 16x8 px images, the font size was about 3,5 points.
and it was just realy blurry,
so i made a selection with the rectangular marquee if i'm not mistaking and made a 1 pixel selection with it,
then i looked at what parts of the font were making it blurry, and used the eraser tool at a low opacity to adjust it to the surounding pixels, sometimes i added color with the brush tool too.
Just nudge the selection over the pixel you want to edit and zoom in real close.


P.S. if you wanna edit a type layer like i did you first have to rasterise it ;)

hope it helps
