I need help. Im working up an advertising circular to be inserted into the newspaper for our company and some of my fonts appear pixelated. I was told by someone to pick a new font that some do that on restalation(?) I picked new ones and it still does it. Wondering if I have a setting incorrectley clicked or something. Help Please. This is a very important project. thanks in advance. |

If you're viewing the fonts at a zoom level other than 100%, they might appear pixilated. If you view them at 100%, they should appear normal.

Thanks for the help. It printed pixelated too so it wasnt just a viewing issue. I figured out it had to do with the anti alias selection and when I save my work as a jpeg the program does something funky to the fonts.
I sharpened them up a bit by choosing anti alias but a tad bit blurry. I was told I should save my work as a psd first and see if that helps. So Ill try that next project.
I will also try using the trutype fonts also that you suggested. thank You. |

In that case, you should check with whoever is doing your printing. They can tell you what format to use, what size, resolution, etc. I've done a few projects for clients who were having documents (not just images) printed on a halftone press. I had to follow specifications from the printer for those.
