Text in photoshop and the words are pixelated

Curious what is the size of the image and the resolution?

Also, if you are just doing something like this... then it might be wiser to create this image in Illustrator.  Also you can create the text in Illustrator then bring it over to Photoshop as a Smart Object.  This also could help.

You need to show us the image size in pixels.

Cmd Opt i

It sounds like you have a tiny image size

Look like you posted a very small image with text in it at a very high magnification.  You need to use more pixels to render good  readable text. Your text is too small and lacks details.  You need to use more pixels for you text. Yes text is vector graphic. You still need to use a good size for the texts to be rendered with  pixels well.  Rendering text small  will not be readable it will be too small to read and will lack details.  Magnifying the image will not make the text readable. For the text lacks the details required for good text.

Hi

• What does it look like in 100% zoom?
• Is there a "T" icon in the type layer (is it text, or has it been rasterized)?
• What version of OS and PS?

If you are using the newest version of Photoshop, try unchecking "Legacy Compositing" in the Preferences > Performance to see if that fixes it
