Poor Interaction Text Quality

Hi,
I've been working with several of the Captivate 6 interactions (accordion, tabs, etc) and the text is always very poor.  I've fiddled around with the settings, output quality, fonts and so forth but the quality of the text/fonts remains poor.  Does anyone have any suggestions that may resolve the issue?
Thanks in advance.

You are using which resolution (because interactions have been designed for a pretty big resolution, rescaling will not improve quality) and slide quality?

  • Need to improve graphics and text quality

    I'm looking for a tutorial or any document that will teach me how to improve graphics and text quality in Motion. Quality is extremely poor. With same settings, graphics and text quality in FCP is far better. Why?

    The quality problems when using Motion titles in FCP usually result from a discrepancy in the Field Dominance/Field Order settings between the FCP timeline and the Motion project.
    See if this post helps:

  • Bad text quality in Adobe Reader on Macbook Pro with Retina

    When viewing documents in Adobe Reader (just installed on new Macbook pro retina), text quality in documents and in the program itself is very low.
    Text quality is perfect in viewer and in Adobe on other computers and on my Iphone. All settings are as recommended (110 pixels/inch and text smoothening turned on). How can this be?

  • TV Anywhere poor video capture quality

    I have a Celeron 1.7, 20 and 60 gig hd at 7200 rpm, 512M of ram. My capture is of very poor quality. I have used the MSI software and also Virtual Dub. Still poor video capture quality. Anyone tell me what I can do or how to do this right?

    If you use a compressing codec in real time, you need lotsa CPU.
    Try using a lossless codec such as Huffyuv (you'll need lotsa disk) for the real time capture and then compress afterwards.

  • How do you change a "row Label" in form central into an interactive text box?

    How do you change a "row Label" in form central into an interactive text box?  I need to leave some of the row labels plank so that people using the form can add some of their on labels.  Can this be done and if so how?

    I'm not quite sure I understand your question. Respondents (fillers of the form) cannot edit the label of a field.

  • Black screen is in interactive and interactive text (console) mode

    I want to install Solaris 10 on HP Proliant DL380 G5. After installing drivers for Smart Array (from CPQary3.iso) I can't see this:
    "Starting Solaris Interactive (graphical user interface) Installation.
    You must respond to the first question within 30 seconds or the installer
    proceeds in a non-window environment (console mode)".
    The screen now is black in both modes: interactive and interactive text (console)
    If I don't install CPQary3 then graphical user interface works good, but "No disks found" :)
    What can I do with it?

    well the problem has been solved...hope this may help others having this issue.
    i basically just let the battery run out, then connected the ipod to my laptop and voila...it reset and all is well again...
    pretty random, but glad it is all working again.

  • [CS5] Create Export PDF Preset w/ High text quality

    Hello,
    I've created an Export Preset for PDFs using the PDF/X-1a 2001 Standards. I've left all the default settings, and the PDF looks good, but now its been requested that I make the text appear more "crisp". I'm wondering what settings I could tweak in my Preset to enhance the text quality?
    Thanks in advance for any help!

    To be honest - I'm not sure about the rasterized/outlined text. We're only viewing it on our computer monitors. What I've done now, which I think will suffice, is created a Preset based on the "Press Quality" preset and saved it with the PDF/x1-a:2001 stanard. This greatly improved the text quality (I haven't dug into the .joboptions file for the built-in Press Quality preset but I'm guessing that's what fixed the issue for me).

  • Printing with BufferedImage and Text Quality

    I am using PrinterJob to print text/graphics.
    In my paint method, if we paint directly on the graphics handle using Graphics2D methods, the text quality is very good.
    Our application has to manage a lot of data, and to handle the callabcks for the same page, we are painting to a BufferedImage, and then drawing the BufferedImage unto the graphics handle on the subsequent calls. The overhead to draw the page is significant, and this give us much better performance.
    The PROBLEM IS, the quality of the text using the bufferedImage is like draft quality test, not the high resolution text we get when we paint directly on the supplied handle using the native drawing emthods every time.
    Any idea how we can buffer the page image, and retain the text quality ?
    In the paint we do:
    m_Image = ((Graphics2D)pg).getDeviceConfiguration().createCompatibleImage(m_wPage,m_hPage);
    m_Graphics = (Graphics2D) m_Image.getGraphics();

  • Text quality bad when converting from word 2010 to pdf

  • Text quality

    I am attempting to create a magazine cover with picture and text.  I have sussed out the pictures, but the text quality is rather naff on printing (depending on the font I use)  Any suggestions to how to improve the font or are there particular fonts that work better than others?
    Edit...using v6 and Time New Roman and Book Antiqua are printing fuzzy...Aparajita is perfect!

    Do these automatically output as vector/type?
    It furthermore depends on your printer/RIP, I’m afraid, but most printers should nowadays be able to handle PostScript data.
    In which case can I rectify without restarting
    If you employ a non-destructive workflow you might by simply up-resing; do you place images as Smart Objects, perform any touch-up in the full-res SOs and apply Adjustments as Adjsutment Layers for example?
    Could you please post a screenshot with the Layers Panel visible?

  • Flash and audio and text quality & Documentation/Manuals

    Like a donut i posted in the wrong bit so here are the links
    to my previous questions rather than duplicating them:
    Documentation
    / Manuals
    Flash
    and audio and text quality
    Apologies and thanks

    There is no polite way to say this: You need training to
    learn how to use Captivate to create learning objects for a LMS. It
    doesn't need to be a "long" training period, but you are trying to
    shortcut ALL training and begin at the end. I advise you learn to
    use Captivate as a generator of learning objects (LO) for the LMS.
    You seem to be thinking you can to use it as a "shell" for your
    Flash output and it just isn't a Flash plug-in ... it is a
    self-standing and sometimes complicated - but usually easy to learn
    - learning tool in its own right (by "easy to learn" I don't mean
    overnight, in any case).
    Reasons why include the fact that Flash SWFs are vector based
    while Captivate uses bitmapped graphics. Audio is handled entirely
    differently on the two. Captivate's communication with the LMS is
    not - I think - going to pass on scoring from the movie-in-a-movie
    approach you are trying to use. And on and on.
    Sorry I don't have more encouraging news for you. Good luck,
    michelle.

  • How do you create aligned interactive text boxs in a PDF with the same width and height?

    how do you create aligned interactive text boxs in a PDF with the same width and height?
    Without free hand creating the sizing?

    Assuming by "interactive text boxes" you mean form fields; in Acrobat, make a form field, then copy it and paste. (GIve the pasted copy a different name so they don't genetate the same field feedback.) Now you have two fields of the exact same size. Shift-click or marquee-drag to select both, then right-click and choose a command from the Align, Distribute or Center menu.

  • Really bad text quality,photoshop, is it pixel aspect ratio?

    when doing dvd's i often use psd files for menus or title boards, quite often at 16x9, now the problem lies with the quality of the text in photoshop and when transferred to dvdsp. In photoshop with a 1024 x 576 sq pixel canvas the text looks crisp and sharp, however when transferred to dvdsp the text feels like it has gone through a verticle interlace, each letter is chopped up and shifted stretched and compressed. Going back to photoshop and making a 720x 576 comp with a widescreen pixel aspect ratio seems to do the same thing but this time in photoshop aswell. The text quality problem is not the usual dvd compression issue that is frequently discussed on these boards where text looks fuzzy, this looks much worse than fuzzy or jpeggy
    Is there a standard, a combination of aspect ratio and canvas size in both photoshop and dvdsp? It is really frustrating.
    Thanks in advance
    Henry

    My issue is particular to the crossover between photoshop and dvdsp, it may also be particular to pal dvd's and relating to the pixel aspect ratio, if you try and create a 720 x 576 document in photoshop with widescreen aspect ratio turned on and try adding text you will notice the issue. This also crosses over into dvdsp no matter what i do unless the image uses square pixels in p/shop the text is awful. I was really wondering if anyone else had found a combination of setups that avoid this wierd occurance in both programs.
    The issue is not the standard 'my font looks bad on an apple display' issue which is often discussed on this forum, i understand that apple display resolutions are so far superior to standard def tv's that it is impossible to compare. The typesize on these projects are 24pt bold sans serif so well above the 18pt generally accepted standard and the canvas size is pixel perfect for pal resolution no images have been reduced or enlarged. The font looks almost illegible rather than just fuzzy.

  • IDVD 7 Poor text quality

    Hello!
    I am trying to use iDVD 7 to create a photo slideshow but my text is showing up terribly after I burn the DVD. Even the automated title text is poor quality and pixelated. I was originally trying this on iMovie but I was getting the same problem so I switched to iDVD and fixed some of the other problems I was having, but my text is still terrible. It's not quite unreadable but it is very unsightly. I would appreciate any input, especially if it doesn't require purchasing more software, which I don't have the authority to do here at my work.Please help! Thanks!
    Dwayne

    I think we're not understanding one another. At first I had used photoshop to add text and then added them to iDVD. But those were coming out terribly and so I learned that you could have iDVD automatically insert notes which you input in iDVD or the names of the photographs overtop the images. This functionality is accesed either in the window wherein you can add or delete images from the slideshow, in the Settings menu, or under iDVD/Preferences/Slideshow. Its called "Show Titles and Comments." So I went back into photoshop, got rid of the text I had added and then turned on this feature. So now iDVD automatically places a grey rounded rectangle near the bottom of my photos with the name of the image file. That is the text that is giving me trouble, and the text that I can't seem to adjust.
    Thanks again for your guys' help. I really, really appreciate your time and effort! I hope this description gives you a better idea of my problem.

  • Text quality from websites noticeably inferior to Internet Explorer, is there a fix for this?

    The quality of text on websites is quite poor with thin type and fuzzy definition, however pictures are good. The quality is noticeably worse than IE8 on the same computer.

    Firefox uses your system-level setting for ClearType font anti-aliasing. Internet Explorer has a separate setting so you can use ClearType in IE even if you aren't using it system-wide. This might explain why you see a difference.
    Can you check your ClearType setting using the steps in this article:
