(I didn't see this message of Pan's the first time around...) I was playing with just this thing the other day - I was making digital versions of some of my old t-shirts just for laughs. I found that applying a gaussian blur helps make the text look more seamless, and certainly less pixilated. What I did was this: 1) Set up the text layer. 2) Had photoshop render the layer, with anti-aliasing. 3) Selected the text in the layer (do this any way you like - I used the "select empty space and inverse" method, with some touchup deselects with the good old magic wand tool). 4) Expanded the selection by 5 pixels. 5) Applied a gaussian blur. If the text is small, this is likely to be a very small radius blur, .3 or .5 pixels. Play with it for the desired effect. The result is nice sharp text slightly "fuzzed out" on the edges. The expanded selection is so that the gaussian filter has some room to feather the edges of the text. PV
