font looks pixelated
http://attila.sdsu.edu/%7Ehalac/images/37/37-middle.gif

I have tried to change the anti-aliasing on the font but the 37 still looks to be pixelated to me. Is there another way to make the font look smoother. I have tried none, smooth, strong....

Thanks,
Jason

and if anyone feels like giving me design tips for my new design sweet

Hey,

Which operating system are you running? Are you using Truetype or postscript fonts?

try this:

RASTERIZE THE TYPE LAYER, control click the type layer, and go to select->modify-> smooth -> radius 4. Click ok

That might work

Hey - i'm on a Mac running 1600 x 1200 resolution and your image looks crisp to me. What screen res and bit depth are you running on your monitor?
