  psd files quality compromised on final cut timeline

  Posted by Matthewjames on March 28, 2007 at 5:46 pm

  Hi, if anyone could help with this I would greatly appreciate it.

  When I’m importing psd files from the graphic designer (made on a Mac) they open and look fine in the Viewer, but once I put them onto the timeline, in the Canvas the letters appear more blurry with somewhat jagged edges, and the pictures appear to be lesser quality, most notably along lines that are sort of pixelated.

  Does anyone know why this might be happening? Or what a possible solution might be?

  Thanks alot.

  Matthew

  Did you render?

  What format is your timeline in (DV, HDV, Uncompressed NTSC, etc.,)? First trying rendering as Chris said but if the rendered image still looks sub-par it’s probably because whatever codec your timeline is set to. DV, for example, really beats up gfx and text especially.
