Watermark: a outline is added to my font

Hi, I've been using the exact same watermark (a simple text based one using the font "Univox", a proper vectorized font) for years. Since a certain time my watermarks are sort of pixelated. I did some tests and noticed that in fact, Lightroom now adds a 1 pixel wide outline to the font during the actual export: when previewed in the watermark editing window, everything looks perfect.  After trying lots of settings to no avail, I checked the metadata in older images and found that this appeared exactly after I updated from 11.4.1 to 11.5.

This looks like a bug to me. Any thoughts?

 

Thanks for caring

Dirk

This was fixed in a later version of Lightroom Classic. Please update to the current version (12.2).

I got the exact same issue on Lightroom 7.0 (non-classic version). Shall I assume it's a bug then?

If you need help for the Desktop version, you'll need to ask in the Lightroom Ecosystem forums. 12.2 mentioned would be a 6.2 equivalent.

Ok thanks! Glad to hear it's a known issue. That was a very recent fix then.... My version is 12.1, I'll update now to12.2 (if available here) and check.
