Text larger then box not made as image
« on: December 04, 2009, 07:30 PM »
Hi. I have a font size of 72 and it goes beyond the box and when the Save as Image as jpeg is done, the image is only the letters that fit inside the box. About  1/3 of the letters become an image. Is there a way to save the entire text? I selected/highligted the entire text first before Saving and it didn't matter. Thanks.

can you elaborate a little more, possibly attaching an image to your post?
(or email me at mouser@donationcoder.com).

The text is 'Village Realty' which is formatted in Edwardian Script ITC font at 72. This makes it so only part of a text fits in the box e.g. 'Vill' and so Vill is the image that gets created not the entire Village Realty. I tried select the entire text of both words before click on Save as Image, but that didn't matter. I am sure I am missing a step.

the idea is that the image should be excatly what you see on screen -- you can resize the window to get a bigger image.  does that make sense?
