  Outer Glow Pixelation on Outlined Font?

  Posted by Bob Thompson on January 17, 2018 at 4:51 pm

  I have an ugly banding/pixelation on an outlined font that I applied an outer glow effect. Does anyone have a remedy so it will be smooth? The attached image is at 300% but it’s noticeable at 100%. This is going to be printed on a postcard.
  
  Thanks

  Hi Bob,

  did you check your “Document Raster Effects Settings” under the Effect menu?
  You can set the resolution of your effects to a higher quality – that should do the trick ☺

  Cheers,
  Tom
