    ive got some text that came from an illustrator file. the faceting is set at its lowest and im
    getting a bit of a jaggy effect down a diagonal edge of the letters. what might be the cause ?

    Hi Mark,

    Are you looking at draft or best quality rendering when you’re seeing the jaggies? The faceting setting normally has the most impact on rounded edges, rather than straight lines.

    If you’re looking at it very, very closely, it may be your antialiasing setting.

    It would be most helpful if you could post an image demonstrating the issue you’re having.

    thanks for your response jon, i have the layer set to “best” and the faceting on “best” set to .1

    you can see the effect on the diagonal of the letter A here.

    Hi Mark,

    The image file you uploaded is very, very small. The resolution is so low you’re bound to get stair stepping when you zoom in. s that the size of your final render?

    no i just clipped that bit to show you how it looks.

    try the same link again for another look. its just on the W and the As it looks
    less than crisp.

    Hi Mark,

    It looks like the wrong image is linked now…. a title page.
