There are three text rendering modes: Smooth, Sharp (Modern) & Sharp (Classic).
The formatting options can be combined by selecting multiple options simultaneously.
These options can be enabled or disabled via the icons in the Tool Bar when the Text tool is active. There are four basic formatting options for text: Text rendered using pixels will appear with a base height the same as the specified pixel size. The approximate pixel height will be number of points * image DPI / 96įixed (96 DPI): Adjusts the font size to match the default Windows resolution of 96 DPI where one pixel is equal to one dot on the computer screen. Text rendered in points will be scaled according to the image DPI (Dots Per Inch). Points (image DPI): Points are a unit of length, often used in typography and in print media. The previous font size metric, "Fixed (96 DPI)" can be selected via the dropdown to the right of the font size. Note that the Size will support values in between integers like 18.3pt.įrom v4.1, Text is rendered using Points for the font size measurement by default. In the case of the Size, a new value can be typed directly into the text box. The first two controls in the Tool Bar determine the font to be used to render text and the size of the characters (shown here as 20pt).Ĭhange the Font or Size by selecting another entry in the drop-down lists. This means text cannot be re-edited using the Text tool once it is committed to the layer. When text is rendered to the layer it no longer exists as text characters, but only as pixels.
