Ask HN: Why does images of text always look better than actual text?
- Nadya 11y agoPlease clarify. Do you mean text rendered in the browser compared to a screenshot of text rendered as an SVG in Illustrator? Or do you mean if I screenshotted this reply before sending it - the text would look better in the screenshot than when rendered on the screen?
- J_Darnley 11y agoText vs. screenshots might appear that way if you have AA disabled or you don't load what ever micro-version of the font the website wants compared with the person who took the screenshot.
