Video Tutorial: Clearing up fuzzy text
Posted: 24 Mar 2017, 04:02
A bit of knowledge gleaned from my days as a Quantel Paintbox artist...
No audio on this one, but a video illustrating three FX stack effects that can clear up low resolution or otherwise pixelated or "fuzzy" text.
Starting with low resolution text, I enlarge it, placing it back on the screen.
(Link to mp4 video below)

Then using the FX stack, add three effects:
Erode
Gaussian Blur
and Color / Curves - adjusting the alpha profile
Done!
Of course, you are really smoothing the edges with this process, and they will be somewhat rounded...
But it works in many situations.
Hope this tip helps someone.
