Tone Posted October 29, 2016 Posted October 29, 2016 While I'm still waiting for the update to photo so I can use it with designer :rolleyes: , mainly the perspective tool in photo, I have started trying to use photo for text but photos text tool has jagged edges, don't know why, while designer has smooth ( I use them both the same way, the only way as far as I can see). I need the perspective tool for 3D effects but I can't use it anyhow with this problem. (see screen shots taken from both apps) I thought it might be the font style but I've tried changing it in both photo & designer & it's no different. Thanks in advance for any help. See right side is very jagged in photo. Same 3D box, front M also jagged but not as bad as side (zoomed in view with photo) M from designer is smooth (see below) Zoomed in on M with designer.

Tone Posted October 29, 2016 Author Posted October 29, 2016 Thanks for the reply. Can't find pixel preview mode at the moment to see what you mean. I always use 300 dpi to start a new file. Have to admit, still a bit lost....Looks like I need to clue myself up more... This is the 3d box exported as a PNG file, & the file was set up with 300 DPI. Still looks a bit rough.

Tone Posted October 29, 2016 Author Posted October 29, 2016 The file size I set was 800 px x 500 px. The file info says I've found pixel persona! 2nd from the left but no pixel preview mode.....I dunno :rolleyes: Quote Affinity photo 1.8.3 Affinity Designer 1.8.3 Affinity publisher 1.8.3 iMac (Retina 4k,21.5-inch,late 2015) 3.3GHZ Intel core i7, Intel Iris pro Graphics 6200 1536, 16 GB Ram.

Tone Posted October 29, 2016 Author Posted October 29, 2016 Yes, the file was a screen shot of the info from the saved png file. So I'll have to make the file bigger then if it gets rid of the jagged edge.. No problem, I just won't use the pixel preview :D Thanks for your help...
