IWeb text blurry

Hi, I've been reading over similar questions in this forum, but haven't found any that answer. Hoping someone can help. I created a website in iWeb. The text on this page looks blurry http://themostdangerouswomaninhollywood.com/Booking.html. The text on this page looks crisp and clear http://themostdangerouswomaninhollywood.com/Peep_Show.html. The text in the upper portion on this page looks great, but the lower portion looks blurry http://themostdangerouswomaninhollywood.com/Ladies_and_Gentlemen.html.
How do I get all the text throughout the site I built in iWeb to display clearly?

I'm assuming you're referring to the small font on those pages. On the first page, booking, the font is has been converted to an image file, probably do to the drop shadow enhancement added to the large font above each smaller paragraph. The same goes for the Ladine and Gentleman page.
It also could be the contrast between the font color against the background. The gray font is easier to see than the black because of the black's lower contrast. Also the italics on the last example you linked to adds to the difficulty to see clearly.
All of the text that has drop shadow or other enhnacements has been converted to images. This prevents search engines from using that text in their ranking and presentation of the site in search results.
Increase the contrast between the font and background and, for my old eyes, increse the font size of the smaller font a bit. I see the photos and videos just fine .

Why is the small text blurry on photoshop?

why is the small text blurry on photoshop? i am **** a very small advert for a newspaper! and the text is printing blurry and when zoomed in is appearing all blurry? how do i stop this i only have photoshop and indesign

If a vector is intact, no flattening has been done. I don't talk about PDF layers, they are a complete different thing. When flattening is done no form or text survives as live vector or live text.
The pdf is X-1, so there are no Layers or transparencies in it, but the text is searchable still.
So I guess you are correct in that no flattening has happened, rather Photohop embedded two images in the pdf and clipped the one with the type.
Exaclty, whe a pDF X1 or 3 is created transparency is flattened and here it can come to unwanted rasterizing of vectors.
How will you create the correct boxes for bleed and crop in Photoshop?
For a newspaper add those will probably be irrelevant as bleed is hardly necessary.
Not at all, it is much easier to assamble files in a greater layout if all boxes are correct.
You know it good enough that this is not the right tool for that task?
Indesign is definitely the preferable tool for the task at hand, but claiming Photoshop cannot output type except pixelated was not proper.
I think in a forum we should not support the use of wrong tools but we have to show the best way to do things correct.
And there are also problems which cannot avoided with higher knowledge like coloured black (not in this ad). Yes, you an me we are capable to shift around the known problems with ads created in Photoshop, but others don't know these problems and will crash.

Lost iWeb text

HELP. I have lost my iWeb text tonight. Is there any way to restore? I have regularly Time Machine backup

If you mean that the text has gone missing in the iWeb application you can go into Time Machine and get an earlier version of the Domain.sites2 file....

Samsung 930b LCD text blurry

I have an Samsung 930b 19” connected to my mac-mini via the mac-mini’s DVI to VGA converter. Previously I had a CRT connected to the Macmini and the text was clearer. The text is blurry now with the LCD. I’ve tried many resolutions and the text still is not as clear as the CRT. Is the solution to buy a DVI cable and use the DVI. Will the DVI make the difference?

I just picked up a Samsung 730b, and noticed the same thing. As the other poster advised, I also found that "light" font smoothing was key to improving the clarity. Also, tweak the "sharpness", and "fine" settings on the display (via the OSD menu). I'd make a note of how they're set before you move them. I also found that "graphite" seems to look more eye pleasing overall. Though I found that a DVI cable made virtually no difference on my Viewsonic/Windows XP MCE box, it surely didn't hurt, and I was able to grab one for about $14 for that setup. I just ordered another for the mini/Samsung, and hope to have it in a few days. Worst case, I'm out $14, but it might make a significant difference.
Being new to the Mac world, I can't say what's different or better about the Apple displays, as I see them setup in stores. Certainly, the iMac and desktop machines I've seen with Apple monitors look outstanding. What I see with my current setup, is much like I saw when I ran Linux. The fonts just never seemed to me to be of the quality and sharpness that I've been able to get on a Windows machine, which far less fiddling.
Until I get the DVI cable, I can't say for sure, but at this point, either:
1) It'll take the $14 cable to have a terrific looking display.
or
2) It'll take a truckload of cash to get an Apple display to have a terrific looking display.
I'm hoping it's #1.

LiveType Credit Roll Text Blurry Shaking in DVD Studio Pro Completed SD

I first created text scrolling directly from inside FCP. The texts appear shaking/blurry in the exported MOV. After trying different font family/size but still getting the same bad result, I did more research. I then created the credit roll in LiveType, imported that into FCP. This time, the exported finished MOV looks great on computer. I thought this is the right fix but after I got everything done in DVD Studio Pro and burned a SD to test on my 50" screen SONY, the credit roll part is again shaking and blurry!! This really drove me nuts!! Well, other texts that I created both in FCP and LiveType appear just fine!! I am trying to export the credit roll texts part as self-contained mov then import back to FCP but really suspect this will fix the problem.
That part of rolling credit texts were shaking in DVD Pro simulation but I thought that's only becuase it was not the final product. Any help will be greatly appreciated!
p.s. I spent the past few hours googling and tried different methods but still had no luck...:(
Thanks in advance!

Ok...I just export a MOV with ONLY the credit roll encoded using QuickTime conversion, change the compression type to Uncompressed 8-Bit 4:2:2 which was supposed to retain the graphic/text quality better than normal setting. The completed credit roll still look shaking, however. It's white text on black, yeah I know not the best combo but there must be a way to get the text to not shake/blur...no?
Please help, if anyone could.
Many thanks...

Iweb text as image -- help!!!

I can't understand... I used the black template and I had two different behaviors:
in the "about me" page the text box on the left after the publishing has been exported as image (keeping the hyperlinks) while all other pages every text box has been published as a TEXT BOX!! How can I set Iweb to export EVERY TEXT BOX as image???
Please, it's driving me crazy!!
thanks

There's a simple workaround to this problem which also drove me nuts. On version 1.1.1 at least the problem is with the templates. Don't put your main text into the boxes provided - use this as a title box or leave it blank (it seems to need to have something in it as you can't get rid of the box itself although you can shrink it down). Create a new text box and paste your text into it and it should render as text- it did on mine. Don't forget to use a single, web friendly, simple font as other contributers have suggested.
Check the pages in the personal development section of my site -
www.thecontinuum.org.uk
Strangely the first page just wouldn't do the same thing without goofing up the rest of the page- putting hyperlinks in thwrong place etc. I left it as image in the end- if anyone knows what's going on there then let us know.

Iweb text hyperlinks not working

ive used iweb to upload my bands website and am not a serious web developer so it worked great but i cant figure out why the hyperlinks i used on the text go straight to the apple site and the ones i used on the buttons and images i made work fine but the text links dont if somebody knows whats up with that and has a minute the site is at audioresistance.net

When you create a hyperlink the default URL is an Apple one. Reselect the text and go to the Inspector/Hyperlink/Hyperlink pane and reenter the url you want to use:
Then check the Makc hyiperlinks active box and test the link before going on to the next link.

PDF Text Blurry Fuzzy... but only on one machine...

I could really use your assistance. When viewing a PDF, one user can see the PDF text with great clarity, but the same PDF viewed by other users, the text appears fuzzy / blurry. I've tried to massaged about every Preference I could (within Acrobat) and through Windows 2003, but nothing worked.
The machines (corporate image) are (should be) identical as is the hardware.
Has anyone successfully resolved this issue?

Thanks for your help.
I'm using Aperture 2.1.4, sorry I should have mentioned that in my original post.
I've installed the RAW Compatibility Update nonetheless, but no joy.
I did a consistency check on the database and nothing came up. Then I did a rebuild and it almost worked. Luckily, I did this on a copy of the library. It removed most of my images from my library, but those that remained (which were a seemingly random subset of my whole library) were fine.
I'm now making another copy of the library from the Time Capsule
It's strange that it would be a problem with the database if it works fine on my MBP, don't you think?
I'm out of ideas!

Why is my text blurry?

I've used fireworks to create my banner, which includes a background color in a rectangle, and my company name in a text box @ a 75 text size. It ends up looking blurry. Is there a way to create a large - crisp looking text?
Should I go about this in a different way?
This is the only program I have to create my graphics.

Can you post the image? Or maybe even post the same thing with different text? What font are you using?
That said, Fireworks' rendering is not always the smoothest. I will sometimes make an image 2 or 4 times larger than my intended final output (make the font size 2 or 4 times my intended size, as well), export the image, then resize the export to my final size.

Why is my TEXT BLURRY in Motion 5??!!!

I have turned the settings to 'best'!!! Why is it STILL BLURRY?! I NEED SHARP TEXT!

Hi Steph,
have you tried to check "flatten" inside the Text rendering box which you can find in the layout tab of the text inspector?
I had similar problem with not wanted blurry effect while the text was doing a transiction and i fixed it...

Changed Display and when changed back, text blurry

I connected my computer to an external monitor yesterday and adjusted the display. After I removed the monitor, I put my display rate back to 1280 X 800. But for some reason all the text on the screen seems a little soft -- not completely blurry, just soft. Is there a setting that I missed when I reset my computer on its own without the external monitor?
Thanks!

I suggest you to upgrade Firefox to version 7 and post back to us

Document text blurry

Hi, i have two word documents, one looks blurry and washed out, the other one is crystal clear. Any idea?
both are arial 11pt
Both pdf are created from a word 2010 documents with the same settings from within acrobat
the view settings in acrobat are the same
this can also be seen at 100% and 150% zoom
the documents look the same in word
Note: This only happens when the view setting is set to lcd-diplays, when the setting is none both documents look the same (similar to the right one)

The one on the left, where the text looks like it has a shadow or is bold.
changing view setting to "display" solved the problem (somehow unsatisfying)

IWeb text colors not as specified

I've got a site that works fine in almost every regard, save one. The text colors do not seem to stay for certain menu items. I've created a navigation menu of six words: home, projects, about, and so on.
http://www.christopherosolin.com/COD/Southpaw01.html
On this page, the word "project" should be a yellow color, and it is. But when clicking the "next" button to take you to this page:
http://www.christopherosolin.com/COD/Southpaw02.html
the word project should still be yellow, but goes back to white. In iWeb I've formatted the text the same way on both pages, yet this consistently happens on each subsequent page. I've gone back and tried reformatting, but nothing changes.

Thanks for the reply. I've done every permutation possible to work this out, and none seem to help. But, what I just did fixed it. I rebuilt from scratch the navigation menu and that seems to have fixed it. That menu had been in use since iWeb 06 and I think there must have been some ghosts in the machine. New menus rebuilt the same way, but now work as expected.

IWeb text moves once posted online

I have created a nice website using iWeb where I combine poems with photos. It's important that the text in the poems is aligned a certain way to highlight the effect of the poetry. When I upload to .Mac and view it online some of the sentences have moved several spaces one way or the other.
You have to see my iWeb platform against the posted site to really tell but the url is
www.peppe-art.com
I have the latest upgrades, iWeb 08, and a 2007 iMac.
I upload straight to .Mac and have a registered domain that directs the url to .Mac
Is there a fix for this?
Thank you

Good idea,
I checked my text box layouts as you suggested and there are no overlapping or unnecessary ones that would seem to interfere with the poem boxes.
I am using blank page option to build the pages. Maybe I'll try a different option of template and see if that helps.
I would hope the text box would "respect" the structure of the text in its box but I've seen the same thing happen when I transfer the structured text in or out of Pages, too.
Thanks again for the tip. I see alot of questions about this problem on this forum and would be glad to hear any other options.

IWeb text collides when increased

I built a website with iWeb: www.purposetherapy.org
When I go to that website the font text fits together nicely, but if I increase the size of the font the text smashes together and you can't read it.
On most other websites (apple, ebay, dealmac etc) I see that when I use my browser to increase the font size the text gets larger without smashing together. If I shrink the font the text gets smaller without becoming unreadable, but if I increase the size, the letters or words collide with each other.
This is true when using Safari or Firefox. I don't know about IE.
Can anyone tell me how to fix this in the website creation? Is it something that is happening when I upload to the site with Fetch? Is this a problem I'm having with the itsamac servers?
Thanks
Panther

This occurs because you use multiple text boxes.
You need to think about your layout and try to use single test boxes and simply format the headings etc. rather than putting them in thier own boxes. The text boxes will not move down to accomodate larger text above.
In tricky areas you can choose a non web friendly font and force iweb to change it to an image, increasing text size will have no effect on images
