Spencerlancs Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 inserting text and I can't seem to get it sharp like a vector - I know there are online free tools to do it but the only answer in paint.net I can see is having a huge canvas and huge text - I've tried the AA assistant plug in and noise but I can't get sharp edges in text!

Pixey Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Hi @Spencerlancs - are you using your text on a new transparent layer? This was done on a normal sized canvas and one AA's Assistant.

Ego Eram Reputo Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 There are three text rendering modes. These are available in the Tool Bar when the Text tool is active. Have you tried those?

Reptillian Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 If you're zooming in and complaining about pixelated look, that's because Paint.NET is not a vector editor, and never was meant to be. Quote G'MIC Filter Developer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
