Dotted structures in GIF exports


Recommended Posts

Hi,

I'm getting unsatisfactory results during the GIF exports (whatevet the setting is). The original file is a text banner with only plain one-color blocks and a text, but the result file contains ugly dotted structures. Not only it doesn't look good, but it also raises the file size (17 kB Photoshop, 45 kB Affinity).

Here is the magnified crop:

Could you pls look into it?

Thanks
Petr

I get similar results. It looks like dithering and it gets worse if you reduce the number of colours in the Export. I have tried a Posterising layer but have failed. Affinity gif & png export is poor compared with Photoshop Save for Web and I have given up with it until it is fixed. Sorry, it seems to be normal behaviour of APhoto
