When i print ariel size 12 on my printer using microsoft word or off the internet it's fine...however, i've just printed a sheet with a size 12 text around my picture on photoshop and the text is blurry. The text looks fine when i view the whole thing on 100%, but when i print it off, it looks like it does when i view it at 125%

Any advice?

I'm using photoshop cs2

This forum is for the discussion of design. You'll get much more help in 
the Photoshop forum, but I will tell you that to get good text out of 
Photoshop you should be printing to a postscript printer.

The Poster may have thought the print in the forum title meant for printing problems, as opposed to commercial printing.

At any respect, the solution is to change the image resolution to at least 200. I suspect it is under 100.

Luke,

Also, when reposting in the Photoshop forum, please define what "size 12" means. Points? Pixels? Inches? Didots? Web? We're not talking shoe or dress sizes. In addition, post what resolution your file is, and what you mean by "blurry". Soft? Pixelated? Finally, whether the type is still live type, or if it has been converted to pixels.

This additional detail will help the folks in Photoshop provide answer.

Neil
