Re: [Digital BW] Autofx Photographic Edges

2004-03-19 by Steve Kale

Hi Lea

The image I tested on was 16 x 10 inches at 360 ppi.  I didn¹t have the
chance to read the manual or anything.  We loaded the image in PS CS and
then clicked on the filter and used one of the layer presets.  When I then
hit ok and the adjusted image finally appeared in PS CS, looking at the
image at 50-100% reveals very heavy pixelation where the image was altered.
The interior of the image was not pixelated at all ie it was left alone as
one would expect.  I was using an edge which made the edge of the image look
etched away.

Regards

Steve

I have a hunch you're doing something wrong...those edges are designed
to be used on photographs and indeed I've seen them on photos as large
as 16x20" without a bit of jaggie. The edge should conform to whatever
the resolution of the image you're applying it to...you might check to
make certain your image is in the 300 ppi range before you do the edge
effect.
