Pixelated text on After Effects

[Pixelated_eye]

Ok, I am not exactly an expert nor am I a begineer at AE. We have this project that has text and my boss is complaining the text is pixelated. I explained to her that AE is a pixel based software and it is not vector based like Illustrator but she is not accepting it. So these are the things I have tried but the results are the same.

1) Import the text as PNG

2) Import the text as AI file
3) Export as PNG sequence

4) Export 4k

We are playing this on playback on a 32" TV Screen. Does the TV screen affect the pixelation? What can I do to fix it or if anyone has any other reasons I can offer up to my boss. 

I took a screenshot at 100% with full resolution. Every thing is at 100% scale, nothing has increased in scale. Yes, render settings are at "Best".

There's nothing pixelated. If at all there are the usual slight soft artifacts associated with MPEG compression. Everything else is nonsense. Your boss clearly doesn't understand the technical side of things. It's possible that your screen has soem sort of upscaling and of course having overcranked colors and sharness can amplify artifacts, but you'd see that on any kind of footage. Just for kicks throw soem 4k YouTube videos with texts at here and then ask her again...

Thanks for the reply. I guess it more about the jagged-ness of the letters, if you look at the letter 'W'. Anti-alias is switched on. Any idea?

Again, there's nothing jagged or soft within the technical parameters of "how computer stuff works". The only way to improve this further would be to use a completely different antialiasing algorithm, which of course would require to exist in AE to begin with. Otherwise you can employ all manner of tricks from substituting the font to adding additional blurs and glows, but ultimately that doesn't change the facts.
