magicdesign__ Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Not sure if this is a bug or settings that i need to change. I open a file in publisher. the images look high res. i switch to designer persona and the images remain high res. I switch to photo persona and the images display as very low res.

Staff Pauls Posted June 26, 2019 Staff Share Posted June 26, 2019 I can see a slight difference - could you provide a screenshot or sample file showing what you are seeing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sef Pinney Design Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 I second that. It's not slight. It appears like 72ppi. On a 23in Dell 4k monitor with 191 pixel pitch, dropping down to 72ppi is like losing your pants in public. Awful. Looks great in Pub. persona! Photo Persona has a lower res anti-aliasing being applied to Text and Curves at normal zoom levels. I can't find any Preferences relevant.

Staff Pauls Posted July 1, 2019 Staff Share Posted July 1, 2019 Photo persona is using a pixel level view, you can compare the difference in Designer (if you have it ) by switching between different view modes. This also might explain why it looks 72 ppi on a 4k monitor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sef Pinney Design Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 I don't have Designer, but I know how my monitor (and windows, and my Quadro) anti-alias by default without any up or down-scaling. That's all I want. To fake some lower resolution with a 72ppi pixel view is lying to the user about monitor settings, and the documents underlying resolution (with raster images.) Document Setup has a DPI setting, and it's set to 300ppi in this case. So, Pixel view should take One pixel of Document and translate it to One pixel of Display. AND it should take Vectors with no inherent pixels and Rasterize them at 300ppi, obviously. If I wanted to work at 72ppi as the document standard, I would set that, and would expect to see pixels all day long. If I wanted 2x Magnification or 3x (for 300ppi) to make the pixel edges visible, I would zoom (B/c 4k). There's a reason why Photoshop's pixel grid overlay only appears at 2x actual pixel res. Am I missing some "Gotcha" in the User interface design logic of the devs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Pauls Posted July 8, 2019 Staff Share Posted July 8, 2019 We should be rendering at the document PPI - if you're not seeing this could you provide a sample document please and I'll investigate further Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sef Pinney Design Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 @Pauls Thanks Paul. Here is the .afpub from my other thread. You can see the aliasing resolution is at least half that of the Interface (191ppi) while the document resolution intent is set to 300ppi, even in the attached screenshot.

Staff Pauls Posted July 9, 2019 Staff Share Posted July 9, 2019 Thanks for the file, We've been looking at this (literally very closely) and can see a probable issue with Publisher using a lower image preview at certain zoom levels. what publisher zoom levels are you taking the screenshots at?
