Blurred, Pixelated Text - is there a fix?

  • July 23, 2021

For weeks now my InDesign text has been displaying as low resolution pixelated text (see screenshot below). 

In preferences my Display is all high quality and images are displaying fine, although now as High Quality as I would like, however this text, and any vectors / EPS files placed also look pixelated or un-rendered.

 

Any advice on how to fix this? Seems to be in every single document I use or open now and is very frustrating! Have tried uninstalling and re-installing InDesign but no luck. 

 

Thanks

 

USING: PC Windows 10, latest version of ID

Hi Jemima,

 

Preferences > Display Performance  >

 

Default View: [ High Quality ]

[  ] Preserve Object-Level Display Settings

 

Adjust View Settings [ High Quality ]

[ x ] Enable Anti-aliasing    Greek Type Below: 0 pt

Hi Uwe,

These issues (font pixelation... not sure about images at this stage) still persist after using suggested settings.

Staff at my school advised others are experiencing the same issue...

 

is Adobe resolving this issue??

I'm not a Mac guy but I'd bet that's at the root of it. I know the newer versions of ID have been very sensitive to MacOS versions. Maybe one of the Macsperts will ring in, here. Can't hurt to upgrade, I think.

 

ID is increasingly demanding on RAM, as well. Any less than 16GB and all kinds of problems crop up.
