  Remove Jaggy Edges Photoshop

  Posted by Matthew Joal on November 16, 2007 at 1:53 am

  I have an image which I need to remove the jaggy edges from. The jaggy edges aren’t bad enough that I think it has to be redone – I thought there might be a way to just smooth the edges out. I read someones post about using a blur and then moving the levels to sharpen the edges, however, I didn’t have any luck with that.

  Does anyone have any ideas?

  I have the psd online so you can see what I am trying to do.

  Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

  hi,
  try these settings in Illustrator CS2.
  Place the Photoshop picture in Illustrator.

  ADJUSTMENTS

  1: select the picture withe selection cursor…
  2: choose LIVE TRACE from the menue and in the Tracing options to start out, try these settings:
  Mode: Black and White/ treshhold 128/ Blur 1.3 pix

  TRACE SETTINGS

  path fitting: 2 pix
  minimum area: 10 pix
  corner angle: 20

  Play around with these setting, experiment, it’s fun…
  you can get all those different looks….

  take care,
  Adi
