Hello, I have a client who does caligraphy and sent me a pdf that she would like printed. She sent a scan of her original artboard and asked if I could "clean it up". The letters are very jagged and I don't know how to fix them. Please see attached.
Can anyone give me some pointers? I'm not very conversant in photoshop.
There's no nice way to say this: tell her to do it again, properly this time. You can't do anything here except recreate it.
She has made a bitmap image at very low resolution and then enlarged it. If this has to be done as a pixel image, tell her to at least start out in decent resolution.
But this should properly be done as vector art. Illustrator is what you would use for this, not Photoshop.
Thank you Stephen_A_Marsh and D Fosse for your replies.
D Fosse, your comments reaffirm what I was thinking, that this was a very low res image. I was pulling my hair out trying to figure out how to fix it but I think I should ask her for her artboards and maybe I can get a better scan.
Stephen_A_Marsh, I did try your method of using the filter-noise and that helped a lot! I am learning photoshop through Linkedin Learning but I'm still in the beginning of my training so that's very helpful to know.
