[QUOTE="Benedictine, post: 1392423, member: 247413"] I have been a graphic/commercial designer for 15 years - on pc and on mac - and I have never seen this problem before. Currently I am on a Mac Pro that is about one year old. My fonts on the entire adobe creative suite (CS5) are.. well look at the darn things. [url]http://i.imgur.com/IBdEh.jpg[/url] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/IBdEh.jpg[/IMG] Helvetica Neue - first example (All the sans serifs look like this)- looks like a freaking rollercoaster along the top line. And appears pixelated as if anti-aliasing isn't on (setting it to sharp, crisp, smooth or strong doesn't matter.) 18px size here - Optical and all settings at at 100% 2nd image is the same- just blown up 30% so you can see it up close. 3rd image is Helvetica Bold - same thing.. whoopsy there goes my lunch. And last is Kepler - Regular (from the full pro Kepler set) not as 'rollercoastery' top line but look at the anti-anti-aliasing and the spacing - between the r and m in 'information' for example. Again, changing the formatting or anti-alias settings makes no difference. It just started doing this about 2 weeks ago. No changes were made to hardware/software or anything on my system. I use Fontcase App to turn fonts on and off. I specialize in Typography and explore it as a major design tool. I am freaking out. Anyone who can help me figure out a fix will have my undying gratitude. [/QUOTE]
