I’m using PS 6.0, and I have a set of graphics with text on them that I need to place online. The graphics are about 250 x 250, and I’m primarily using Times New Roman and Calisto in font sizes ranging from 8 points to 12 points. Setting the anti-aliasing to strong seems to work best for the larger fonts and crisp for the smaller fonts, but the end result still leaves a lot to be desired – even before jumping to Image Ready, which really seems to hate small text unless I set the quality to high or maximum. No matter what I’ve tried (various filters, scaling down the text from the higher resolution print graphics, creating a second layer of text underneath at a lower opacity for an anti-aliasing effect), I’m still fighting to find a medium between blurry and jagged.
Is there a plug-in or a set of fonts designed for such a small size at this resolution?
Is there any other way to make text this small attractive and legible?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
