Sonreir Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Hey all, I have a low resolution image (it's cursive text) I'm trying to expand and the primary problem I'm facing is that thickness of the brush strokes turns out much too wide. Is there a plugin I can use to thin the lines out? Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoltBait Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 There are different techniques based on the source image. Can you show us? Or, at least describe better... is it black text on a white background? Is is black text on a transparent background? etc. Quote Download: BoltBait's Plugin Pack | CodeLab | and a Free Computer Dominos Game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonreir Posted August 10, 2020 Author Share Posted August 10, 2020 Basically, I'm trying to thin it out so it looks like the letters were written with a thinner brush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoltBait Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Try Effects > Noise > Median: You might need to clean up the spots between the R and o and between R and y... But, this should get you most of the way there. (I just selected the "Roy" so you could see the difference.)

jamkan Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 (edited) Although not perfect, using a Paint Bucket tool with the maximum Tolerance of 80 to flood the backgroud area can also achieve the effect of thinning the black area. If the edges of the original letterings are feathered first this method would probably work better.
