Photoshop using Illustrator files

Hello everybody,

I've been working on a special text within Illustrator. If I open this file, it's looking really good (in Illustrator):

If I copy + paste this as Smart Object into Photoshop, something weird happens:

The colorlines are very pixelated. How is this possible with a smart object?
The Photoshop resolution is 4K (300PPI).

That's really weird. It shouldn't do that. Have you tried restarting your computer to clear the ram?





Are you using the move tool or Edit>Free Transform to scale?

Does it make any difference if you use Edit>Free Transform with the anti-alias checked?

Also in the photoshop Edit>Preferences>General check that the Image Interpolation is set to Bicubic.

I am not sure why it is pixelating other than the fact you are rendering now as a bitmap vs. a vector artwork in Illustrator.  Try "Exporting" out of Illustrator instead of copy-paste.  The file goes to the clipboard and when that happens could affect the preview of the file and ultimately the rendering.
