Converting Text to an Image and Antialiasing
There are times when you'll want to convert text to an image to maintain typography and box background. Examples are: * Stylized logos not saved as an image. * Text in an unusual font that most users may not have installed in their systems. * Text that is rotated, skewed, or flipped. * Text that is scaled horizontally or vertically. * Text that has significant kerning or tracking applied. * Baseline-shifted text.
1 Open the Attributes Inspector 2 Click on the text box containing the text you want to convert. Text Box Settings will open.
3 Click As Image. Specify the format -- GIF is recommended for type -- and choose Interlaced to let the image draw quickly in low resolution, then redraw in higher resolution. You can also name the image file. 4 Click Share This Image if you plan to use the image on other pages, and add an Alt tag for those who browse the Web with images turned off. 5 Choose Antialiasing to ensure smooth lines around the edges of type. Higher levels of Antialiasing, while better in quality, are also higher in memory. 6 When you're finished formatting the image, close Text Box Settings.
