Well, AE’s DOF blur sucks a little.
If you really want to imitate the real effect I would suggest you to try Frischluft Lenscare or even Tinderbox. They both do a better job keeping the highlights…Salut.

Hi Roger,
When you outline your stroke your curve becomes a closed path. In other words your texture will be applied all around your curve that’s why you must divide your curve object in half using a transparency map and position your texture map in a comp covering only the other half.
I think I made a project available. If so download it to better understand what I am talking about. If not let me know and I will create one for you.
It is also important to save your curve in IL having it diagonally positioned. This will help you to pricisely know where your mapping will start as Invigorator starts mapping at the bottom left.Let me know if you need more help.
Salut.

Hi,
When working with text that is not created in Invigorator you could either use the Release to layers command in Illustrator and check Open as layers in the Invigorator import window or leave your text grouped and check “Dismantle Incoming Groups”.
Your letters must of course be assigned to different sets in the Set-Up window so you can animate them separately.Salut.

Hi,
What is your Invigorator version? I am asking because you don’t need to save to ai version 8 since a long time ago.
Make sure that you add a stroke and/or a fill to your artwork. If it has none It won’t work in Invigorator and you will get the “No usuable Vector Paths in this file” warning.
For text Steve answered your question.
Salut.

Yes you are correct. Only the Pro version can do that. Sorry.
Salut.
