Hi, I put a triplanar in my generator to project the output of the work as a triplaner .. but the output of the work is in pixels.
I searched the internet and saw some people saying that the position map should be 16-bit. So where do I change the bake settings in the substance painter software so that the output of this process is a 16-bit map?

Set the graph bit-depth to absolute then choose the precision you want, which should be 16bit minimum:

Pixelated results with generators/filters is related to a loss of precision/bit-depth at some point, it can be either:

the Substance graph isn't 16bit (or more, mask sure to force the bit dpeth before cooking the graph)
the input bitmap (bakes) are not 16bit

You mention that you baked in 32bit, but not which file format you used to store the result. If I recall well, Marmoset Toolbag doesn't support 16bit pngs and TGA is 8bit only as well. So make sure you use an appropriate file format.
