To avoid thin white border around the text in illustrator

[Shims]

Hey Guys,

After saving artwork as jpeg in illustrator adobe cs6. it always leaves a thin white border around the text(Picture bellow).Tried adding stroke with same colour but still have thin white border text. It wouldn't usually be a problem except for when the background is a dark colour or black.
Why does it do this?? Does anyone know how to avoid this frustrating problem?

shims,

What happens if you save just the Type/text as PNG24 (and set Matte to black if that makes a difference)?

PNG24 is a more obvious choice than JPEG for vector artwork.

Apart from that, I see no white.

Thanks Jacob Bugge!
I have tried saving just the text as PNG and import the same on dark background but this white line border is still there. It's so

annoying. This Screenshot is from the PDF.

Shims,

Apart from my still seeing no white (but a JPEG like appearance (muddy)), I am still pondering.

Hi Jacob Bugge,

According the colour range i have used. It should be only red(E01E25) and dark matte (1E1818) but there is some whitish residue pixel around the text border. I have tried setting the anti-aliasing method(Character pop up menu) to none, it removes the thin white line but then the problem is that the text border become jagged.

Any suggestion.

It's a bit late but i had the same issue and found the solution. Just change the black bg from default black (c0% m0% y0% k0%) to a pure black (c100% m100% y100% k100%).

If you want a desaster in printing, then you'll surely have to do that, yes.

What would you do then, to avoid other issues?

The grey hairline only appears in CMYK files, which are files for printing. In the offset print that line will not be there.

It might appear when you print to an inkjet printer. In order to suppress it, you could use trapping for example: make a stroke around the text and set that to multiply. But really, what to do about it would depend on your individual situation.

Ok, i've tried more things.

The thing is: do you want a digital image? Use RGB color. No antialiasing issues.
Do you want to print it? Don't worry about the white lines. Export to PDF. Print. No lines.

At least that's what i've managed to do.
