Why do my fonts have jagged edges??
This started recently. All my titles in FCP have the jaggies?? You know, aliased edges, no smooth rounded curves. All fonts. TT and PS. No discrimination here..
Can anyone point me to some likely suspects?
TIA

Sometimes it seems to be worse than other times, but if you go with fonts created in Boris or Livetype or Motion it will be better. Because FCP’s fonts are rasterized they will never look that great. I’ve found that having no field dominance in the sequence settings makes it look a lot better though. But on a computer, when there is movement, jagged edges will show up in the video- but when you play on an NTSC or HD montior I haven’t noticed any problems. Why don’t you experiment with the no field dominance and see how it looks when you put it to tape or DVD and watch it on an NTSC monitor?

Bruce,
Come on, you’ve got to give information if you want information. What video format do you work in? Which tile tool are you using? What changes have you made letely? How are you monitoring?

Sorry… All text generating plugins, no matter what resolution. 🙂
It was effecting other programs as well. On a lark, I ran “Fix Permissions” and poof.. All back to normal. 🙂
Thanks anyways.
