Poor Quality Text In Doom 3

Hi i have resenty got this probelm with doom 3 the text seem really blurry i have not chnaged any setting
here is a screenshot to illistrate what i said
Many Thanx Lee

firstly whats your graffics card and what drivers are you using

ive set mine to 75 herts and the game is smoother faster and not gerky

Poor quality text in PDF

I am using Acrobat pro X to produce an online brochure. I started producing the brochure in Corel draw using A4 paper size in landscape mode. When I created the PDF by the print command the general quality was very poor, both graphics and text. I experimented with various settings increasing the quality settings for images but it didn't seem to have any significant effect. I then tried placing some of the elements in a Word document and creating a PDF from this document, and again I found that the results were unsatisfactory, a bit better than from Corel but not very good. I have converted many Word documents to PDF in the past without problems. I started a new Word document and this time copied a template for a landscape brochure from Microsoft. This was already populated with some Text-and-Graphics. When I created a PDF from this it was quite good. It was not clear to me what the difference between my basic word document and this new one was. I went through the documents’ settings with a fine tooth comb and the only one I could find was different was the paper size and orientation. I then copied some of my graphics and text to the word brochure document, and this to converted nicely to PDF. I took a note of what appeared to be a somewhat unusual paper size and copied this to the Corel document. When I created a PDF it was now significantly better all the paper size was wrong. I went back from scratch with both the word document and the Corel draw document (those which produce bad PDF files) and carefully made sure that the paper size and orientation in the document matched the PDF settings. But the result was still poor in this case. It is not clear to me what is causing the problem although it does seem to be mainly text, the graphics are often okay. The text however is extremely patchy looking and very poor quality.
In the Acrobat settings I started with "high quality print" default setting and edited this. When I selected the fonts section there were no fonts selected for embedding. This surprised me as I would have thought high-quality print would automatically embedded all fonts. I selected the fonts in my document and embedded them and saved the settings, but when I went out of this dialogue box and straight back in it showed up with no embedded fonts. What's happening here? Is it for getting about my font selection? Or does this dialogue box when you re-enter it not reflect the current settings? Furthermore when I completed my modifications to the "high-quality print" default settings it asked me to save them as a new job options file which I did, but when I go to print a second time it never gives me the option of selecting these saved settings.
I have tried almost every permutation and combination of settings page sizes et cetera and I now tearing my hair out trying to figure out how to simply get a reasonable quality PDF file. Any assistance on these matters would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Michael
I am using Corel V 13 and Windows 7. The issue is not confined to Corel as I am also getting poor results often with Word as described. I also need to know about the font embedding as described above. Is it the case that if the fonts are embedded this
guarantees they fonts display sharply in the PDF? i.e. do the scatty fonts in the PDF prove I am not getting embedded fonts?
Corel does have a printer driver compatibility setting where you can set the target printer, but the PDF virtual printer is not available in the list.
Thanks

Poor Quality Text in Titles

Hello, my name is Scott and I’m a newbie.
I made a cute little movie using FCE and exported it as a QuickTime movie. When I play it in QuickTime, the text for my titles is of very poor quality, like it was sent through a fax machine. When I play it on iTunes, the text looks great. When I copy the iTunes version on to iDVD and test it out it’s back to the poor quality again.
Does anyone know what might be going on. I understand there is a difference in pixilation between my Macbook Pro and a TV, but why would the text look so good viewing it on it using iTunes?
Scott

Yep, it's set to high quality viewing....I just figured it out. QuickTime was set to "fit to screen" and not "actual size."
I learn something everyday.
Thanks,
Scott

"Full Quality" = Poor quality text?

I am making a DVD, and am using video that is exported from iMovie HD. When I chose "full-quality" for the export, and view it when it is done, the quality (compared to how it looks in iMovie) is crap. It is especially noticeable in the "title slides" where there is just white text over a black background.
In my opinion, it definitely doesn't look like "full quality". What am I to do?

What I don't get, is that when I try to do the "share
to iDVD" feature, it opens a completely new project.
I already had one started, but it won't let me share
into that one. What do I do?
To add an iMovie project to an existing iDVD project, drag the iMovie project into the iDVD window. That is how we routinely include multiple iMovie projects on a single DVD.
As Lennart said, there's no good reason to export the iMovie project to a Full Quality movie you send to iDVD. In fact, it can cause problems. Your DVD won't contain the chapters you created in iMovie, for example.
When you Share an iMovie project to iDVD, or drag the iMovie project into the iDVD window, iDVD grabs a special movie iMovie stores for it inside the iMovie project package. The movie is in the package's Shared Movies > iDVD folder. To look inside the package, Control-click on the iMovie project and choose "Show Package Contents" from the popUp menu. (No need to go there unless you're interested. Don't change anything.)
The Full Quality movie you created is confusing you, for it's a confusing thing. iMovie calls it that not because it plays the movie with great clarity, but because it retains all the quality of the iMovie project. Exporting to a Full Quality movie hands us a movie we can import to another project with no loss of quality. Each type of iMovie project has its own type of Full Quality movie, following the movie format of the exporting project. There's never any loss of quality.
Changing the playback features of a DV movie in QuickTime Player has no effect on the quality of the movie itself or on the quality of a DVD you burn of the movie. It only affects playback quality in QuickTime Player itself.
QuickTime has been around a long time. On yesterday's slow computers, we would lower the playback quality on (huge) DV movies so we could play them more smoothly.
Note that if you have QuickTime Pro, you can set your QT Player preferences to play DV movies with high quality by default.

Poor quality text on path after updating to CS6

I have an Illustrator document I created some time back, probably in CS4 (but could have been CS2). It shows a road map and has lots of road names that follow the path of the associated road. When I open this doc in Illustrator CS6 I am told that the legacy text must be updated before it can be edited.
If I open the file without updating the text then everything looks fine but if I choose to accept the offer to update all the text then my road names appear with irregular character spacing that looks very ugly.
Can anyone please explain how I can update the text to CS6 without messing up the appearance?
David

None of the paths in this case appear particularly challenging. The text is simply following relatively gentle curves in the road, so it is disappointing that CS6 does a poorer job than previous versions of Illustrator.
The problem affects one particular road name on my map more than any other. My original document had a tracking value of zero for all characters in this name and looks perfect. I can only get close to this in the updated CS6 document by applying very high tracking values (well over 200) to selected characters.
Thanks for taking the time to respond. If you as an MVP are struggling to find any relevant documentation then I don't feel so bad about failing to find it myself!

Poor quality text in DVD Studio Pro

Hi there,
I'm using DVD Studio Pro. I create menus in Photoshop and export flattened .psd files.
I work in PAL. This problem is worse in 16x9 (anamorphic).
I create the menus at the true original res of 1024x576. When the menus are imported into DVD Studio Pro the text becomes jagged and pixelated. I understand that non-square pixels are causing this, but I don't know of a solution.
What is the best way to bring menus and text into DVD Studio Pro?
I have searched a lot and noone has a great solution.
Thanks heaps,
Mike

You may find that Photoshop does a better job of resampling down to your SD PAL resolution. When DVDSP resamples down from your 1024x576 file, you are at the mercy of the hardware or software rendering in DVDSP, depending on your DVDSP prefs. Ideally, I'd work in Photoshop at 720x576, and use the pixel aspect ratio correction to correct the preview aspect ratio in Photoshop.

Text poor quality after Export

I'm having some pretty poor quality text rendering after export. The video appears fine otherewise. I am exporting to YouTubeSD not HD, though I wouldn't think that would matter. [?]
I'm pretty new to the complexities of film editing. So, I can't answer much about the video source files other than that they are MP4 converted originally from analog files written to DVD. I wouldn't think that would have anything to do with the titles at all since all text created thru PP Title Editor. [?]
Here's a screenshot of settings. Any ideas?

Sorry- I meant to add this is CS5.5
Jeff- I've been using this same font for other projects without problem. This just started happening on this project. Yes, it is a serif font but no problems before. It's always rendered well [Adobe Arabic].
Message was edited by: zech3 APOLOGIES- when I searched this issue, I didn't see my exact problem and the post below [ http://forums.adobe.com/thread/705407?tstart=0 ] just got resurrected from 2010, it didn't appear in my search... though I'm not sure our issue is identical...
Here's a better screenshoht:
And some screen shots of titles:
BEFORE text rendering problem. From a project last year, this typeface is skinnier but rendered much better!
AFTER text rendering problem started. This is the current typeface that, even though a heavier typeface, renders horribly!!
I should add that the titles seem to flicker a bit when transitions are applied to the start or end of title clip.

Save As PDF /A Poor Quality

Hi
I am trying to save a PDF file as a PDF /A 1b
When I choose PDF /A 1b and click Save, the file is created but the resolution is incredibly poor. Text is fuzzy and when I zoom into images they are pixelated.
If I hit the Settings button in the Save As dialog and change the Image resolution to 300 PPI, the resulting PDF is fine but it is not a PDF /A and a dialog box appears suggesting that Preflight should be used with the PDF /A profile to fix any problems
I tried using the preflight feature and choose the PDF /A profile but again, the quality was incredibly poor. I edited the profile but could not see where exactly to raise the resolution so I tried changing the Images section from Inactive to Info and changed the values to 300 PPI. I saved the profile, but the Preflight utility reported an error 'unable to save/create file' when I tried to run and fix the process.
Can anyone help me produce a PDF /A that is of a decent resolution so that images can be zoomed into without losing clarity and where the text is not fuzzy/hazy please?
Many thanks.

Thanks to both of you for your replies.
Here's what we do:
We create PDF versions of MS-Word, MS-Excel, CAD, MS-Access, MapInfo documents. We use CutePDF Pro to merge those PDF's into a single document. Later, we may use Adobe Acrobat to create a smaller file via the virtual Adobe PDF printer which is suitable for transmitting via email. When we create a smaller sized file we do not see a drop in quality. The view options are set so that 'what you see is what you get'.
The original document looks fine and we can zoom in and see small detail in the images and the text stays sharp - same with the smaller file size versions.
We create a PDF /A for archiving because we have to deposit these files with professional archiving services. The people who run this service require PDF /A PDF's which are searchable - this means that text has to be retained. One of things I noticed when watching the output during the PDF /A creation process was that many pages were being converted into images which is of no use to us as the ability to search will not be available.
Regarding the transparency question I have no idea. I will research this and find out how to run the transparency flattener. Hopefully, that will resolve this.
Thanks again for your help!

Poor Quality Export to AVI

Hi im a newcomer to Premier Pro and need some help in adjusting my settings for exporting my video.
The video in question is made up of 5 seperate videos (created from still jpegs with ImageVideoMachine at 1024x768 with 24fps and 1080HD Profile). When I view these videos seperately they are good quality and do not have any problems. However after i imported them to Premier Pro and added an audio track in the background and a small bit of text the quality after export is really bad in places.
I have tried lots of different settings in the export but just cant seem to get it right. The main problems that seem to occur is when the camera moves quickly from one scene to another and it seems to get very blurry and pixelated and sort of like half the scene is catching up (hope this makes sense!).
The entire video is only 4 and a half minutes long so I am not too worried about the size of the file. Any help would be greatly appreciated as im at a loss what to try next and the poor quality of the video takes away so much from my hard work in creating the presentation.
Hoping you can help
Alan

Just as further information for anyone who can help. These are the properties of one of the five .avi files I created using ImageVideoMachine. As I said these play at a good quality and without any pixelation of blurriness.

Office Web Application PDF rendering poor quality

Hi
We have a customer using SharePoint 2013 and Office Web Application to provide PDF and WORD documents to partners. Now we ran into the problem, that all PDF are rendered in such a poor quality, that it is hard to read the PDF document, because it
is so blured. DOCX documents are also compressed, but readable. If the user downloads the PDF file, the Quality of the PDF is good.
That is how it looks in Office web application:
This is the same file downloaded and opened with the pdf client:
Is there any solution for this problem? Does Microsoft planned any update on this?
Thanks
Michael
in2brain

Hi Michael,
Are you using a monitor with high resolution?
Per the following information, if you are using a monitor with high resolution, the pdf rendered by OWA from browser will look blurry, as a workaround you can open PDF file using PDF client software currently.
"The Word Viewer in the WACs converts documents (including PDFs) to PNG images at 96 DPI which is likely why the users are seeing blurry text if they are viewing documents on a high DPI device/monitor (>200 DPI)."
Thanks

Flash is a poor quality software

Guys, after just short time (luckily) that I had to work with flash, during which time flash show what its capable of (not a positive thing), my thoughts on it.
Flash is extremely poor quality software. Incidents working with flash involved
1. thumb doesn't show up on slider when I click button once, but shows up when I click this same button twice. (code: thumb.visible=true), that all there was to it!!!
2. movie clips moved out of scene are showing on scene anyway
3. Simply copying the aforementioned slider and placing it on first frame on main scene brakes totally unrelated code somewhere else. But pasting the same slider on second frame doesn't brake that code anymore! Needless to say that slider has no code whatsoever so it couldn't possibly reference anything in my scene anyway!
What else? Yesterday I was happily working till lunch. Saved my work, went, had a lunch, came back, try to open my file, nope, not so fast flash tells me that this is incorrect format of a file!!! I couldn't believe what I'm seeing. I've never during my 15 years of working as a programmer came across software which couldn't open file saved by itself. Apparently, this is very common problem with flash: Re: I cannot open FLA files in CS5 "UNEXPECTED FILE FORMAT" help!
Luckily I've had save this file the day before so I've lost only half a day's work.
Another phenomena, during debugging flash goes through lines of code and at last line throws error that child mustn't be null, which is really bizarre because on previous lines I've had that child object and flash didn't complain at all:
child = new Item();//goes through this line
child.setUp("myChild");//goes through this line
addChild(child);//throws ERROR that child mustn't be null.
Another incident, two buttons identical class, all is different is text on them, one says play, the other one says settings. First button do not respond to mouse events, specifically to mouse_over event, second button behaves correctly. Situation got resolved that I've added another, dummy button and moved it out of stage. Now both original buttons behave correctly!!! How is this possible???
Another incident from before yestarday. Same slider. First frame, two copies of it. First one (top one) after publishing looks as it looks in editor, second looks completely different! parts are scaled up, far away from each other, total mess!!!WHY??? I simply put one slider from library and copied it once. Same frame, same slider, no code involved whatsoever and despite this flash messes things up.
Another incident with slider. The same slider copied from one frame to other. One works perfectly on one frame (that is you can drag the thumb and the thumb follows your mouse), paste EXACT!!! copy of this slider on different frame and the slider becomes unresponsive!!! Un effing bellievable!!!!
Oh, and one more thing, can this software and swfs produced by it be any slower and use more processor power?
There were also plenty of others smaller annoyances how flash behaves, or why doesn't behave correctly. I'm so glad that will not have to work with this software anymore. It is so bad. And it is Flash CC. Unbelievable.
So I suppose, my question is, why is flash so poor quality software, despite the fact that is on the market for so many years?

Are you serious?
Are you genuinely serious?
Are you really...
How can anyone think that this, out of box should compile? How?!?
The child isn't declared, Item class isn't defined, how can you think that this could/should compile? How?!!!
As I've said in one of my previous posts, this is simply snippet of my code with those problematic lines. And why I have problem with this is, again, as I've said previously flash does go through two lines with child variable, but throws error (during debugging) at the third line that child variable mustn't be null!!! while just before second didn't have any problems with referencing this variable, just one line previously.
And no Amy, you are wrong saying that I've nulled this variable somewhere.
If you look at the code (from one of my other posts):
//[begin of example]
//some function's body
child = new Head_mc(); //Head_mc is a movie clip
trace("child: " + child);//outputs some name of this child
child.setUp(aHead);//goes through this line fine while debugging
addChild(child);//GIVES ME ERROR TELLING ME THAT THAT child MUSTN'T BE SET TO NULL!!!!!!
if I change this code to:
//some function's body
var c:MovieClip = new Head_mc(); //Head_mc is a movie clip
c.setUp(aHead);//goes through this line fine while debugging
child = c;
addChild(child);//No problems, but why is it that this works and the first code doesn't work?
//[end of example]
you will see that the only function which could possibly nullify child variable is function setUp, yet this function is called in second example as well as in first and yet first example behaves incorrectly and second example works as expected. Why? What's different there?
Oh, and @sinious, please mate, give me a favor and don't try to compile it, because it is impossible to compile. But also please note that I mention that the debugger goes through some lines so it must mean that at some point I did compile it first and then started debugging. It does make sense, doesn't it?
As for working with complicated software/languages?
Guys, please don't make me laugh.
Maya, Catia, AutoCAD, 3DMax, Visual Studio, Blender, Photoshop, ZBrush, UDK, UE4, - (except Catia I work on weekly basis, every week of the year (except holidays and weekends that is) with each and everyone of those products), and of course as a language of choice I use C++. How do you think C++ compares with regarding difficulty, complexity, learning curve to as3 do you think?
Flash (and as3) is a relatively simple but buggy, poor quality and unreliable software. I can say that not because I cannot learn it. I can say that because I've worked with it and experienced it's poor quality and "bugyness" from day one. I also worked with other software in my life, I also do work every day of my life with other software (the above mentioned), and flash simply proves to be of poor quality.
None of the software I've mentioned couldn't open file it just wrote couple of minutes ago. With flash it happened. Not once now, but two times. And not just to me. Plenty of examples on the web. Guys, please, open your eyes. It didn't happen because I'm a bad/incompetent programmer. It happened because flash is a buggy, poor quality and unreliable software. And companies are ditching flash not because I say it is bad. They ditching it because through their own experience they realized that flash is a buggy, poor quality, poorly performing, unreliable software. That's all there is to it.
And as for self-congratulatory behavior of yours:
"Plenty of evidence is here to the contrary so, mission complete"
What mission did you achieve?
The one in which you proved to everyone that you don't understand that you cannot compile code snippet which is taken out of context?
What kind of programmer you are, it just makes me wonder...

Why am i getting poor quality photo prints after installing lion using canon pixma 6120?

After installing Lion, I began experiencing poor quality photo prints on my Canon Pixma 6120 printer. Prior to Lion, my picture prints were all high quality. Now, anything black in the picture is faded.

Lion should not cause the blacks to print faded. The printer drivers used by Snow Leopard and Leopard are the same version as that used by Lion.
For starters I suggest you check that you have the latest version installed. This Apple KB article shows the MG6100 series has v10.51.2.0 as the latest version.
I also recommend you do a Nozzle test print. This can be executed from the MG6120 control panel or via the Printer Utilties window (via Print & Scan, select the printer and then open Options & Supplies and then select the Utilties tab).
If the nozzle test print is okay but the blacks still look faded when printing photos (note the printer has two black ink tanks - one for photos and one for text) then try a reset of the printing system. This will remove the MG6120 from the Print & Scan pane but not the supporting drivers. So you will only have to add the printer again.

Poor quality DVD and img

Both the burnt DVD and the.img copy have very poor quality when played. It is particularly noticeable on the text which acts as a link to the other parts of the DVD. The preview is fine and the encoder is set to "best quality" ..HELP!

I'm looking for answers too: Having the best possible dv-quality raw material, I am puzzled that iDVD chooses to only use 1.2 GB of the 4.3 GB available on the DVD - even though I use the "Quality"-mode instead of best performance!
The loss of quality really is visible - also on tv!

Poor quality printing

About a year ago I remember seeing frequent complaints about the poor quality printing in photo books.
Is anyone else still having problems? I just recieved 2 books and I am just unimpressed (and quite disappointed) with the print quality.
One is a duplicate of a book I had printed through My Publisher last year and there is a night and day difference. The My Publisher book looks far superior.
I was having difficulty with My Publisher so I decided to give Apple's service a try.
I'm shooting with an 8mp dSLR camera (Canon) so I should have no issue with 8x10 prints. My scanned images were all at 300dpi.
Many of the photos in the book I've had printed locally and there is a big quality difference.
Is anyone seeing this problem or did I just get unlucky?
THANKS!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. The Apple book cannot compete with your printing of the photos or pages on your own inkjet printer or thru a photofinisher. It uses a different type of printer. The current books (all sizes) are printed at 300 dpi. Here's what Apple send me regarding the books printing and material quality:
I contacted Apple and asked for information that I could pass on. Here's the reply I received from Apple:
"Thank you for contacting the Apple Print Products Customer Service.
I understand that you would like to know the printing process that is used and the color mode the files should be in, so you can better advise users in the iPhoto forum.
iPhoto version 4 or later, allows you to import and print files through the Apple Print Product service as RGB, grayscale, or CMYK color space. JPEG files with RGB color space are recommended for best results.
While iPhoto 2 can import files of various formats, including RGB color, grayscale, and CMYK, this version requires JPEG files with RGB color space when printing photos and books.
For more information regarding iPhoto 2, please visit the following article:
iPhoto: Color, Black and White Prints Appear Garbled or Distorted
For more information regarding iPhoto 5, please visit the following article:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=165501
Here are some of the technical specifications for the books, cards, and calendars. I hope this gives you an idea about their quality and form.
BOOKS
All iPhoto books are printed using acid-free paper for long-lasting image quality. The photos are printed at a high resolution (300DPI if you use iPhoto 6). There is no external modification--such as sharpening or contrast adjustment--of the photos; what you see in the application is what is printed in the book.
Hardcovers Books
The cover is hard-bound and covered in linen. You select the linen color during the book-ordering process. The hardcover books have a solid, stiff binding that is glued and crimped. The internal pages, measuring 8.5 x 11 inches, are printed on McCoy 100# Text Gloss paper stock.
Softcover Books
The softcover books come in three sizes:
- Large 8.5 x 11 inches
- Medium 6 x 8 inches
- Small 2.6 x 3.5 inches
All of the softcover books have internal pages that are printed on McCoy 100# Text Gloss paper stock. The large softcover book has a white cover (Kromekoteplus Folding Cover, 16 point) with a cutout on the front that reveals the cover-page photo in the book. The covers for the medium and small softcover books have the cover image and title printed directly on the cover. All of the softcover books have a glued binding and feature a thick cover of McCoy 100# Cover Gloss paper stock.
CARDS

TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
