mattspace Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 HI, So this is a problem I have when placing PDFs into Publisher - the system's (macOS High Sierra) LCD Font Smoothing engine causes red & blue fringing around the edges of the text. The same problem happens in the operating system's Image processing engine (SIPS). You can alleviate the effect by switching off LCD Font Smoothing in the system preferences, and I've even used Applescript to do this as the first and last stage of a SIPS run, but having to turn it off before placing, and updating a pdf in Publisher is kind of a drag. Is there an option to ignore it? I note this isn't a problem for me in InDesign, because it uses its own PDF processing engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
