    hello
    I am using CS5 AE and working with Helvetica truetype text.. but the edges look almost bitmap-ish???
    is this a known problem?
    is there a quick solution?

    hello
    thanks for responding.. no. I’m not a first user, but I was making an extremely stupid mistake.
    I’m just getting going with HD.. been working in SD. so my composition window was in the “Fit” mode
    and not at “100%”. problem solved when I realized it.
    I have a quick other related question though-if you have the time-

    now that i am working in HD… what bpc should I be using.?not 8bpc I assume..
    do I need to do 32 bpc when working in HD??? or is 16bpc good?

    the job is making film titles for an HD 1920 x 1080 film. need to get up to speed on all this..

    thanks for all your help

    This page should explain a lot about color depth.
