    I made a crest in X3 sometime ago for a sports club, However when I re-open it the bevels are heavily pixelated and distorted. Is there something I should be doing to the bevels before hiting save?

    I’m not sure how to make bevels in corel (X5) but when I do things like drop shadows and other bitmappy things, I always ‘break drop shadow apart’ > ‘convert to bitmap’, it seems to still look pixely but will print properly, not as a square bitmaps if left as a drop shadow!

    does that make sense?

    I’m not sure I understand it myself, still got a heavy head from the
    GRAND SLAM celebrations :tongue:

    had that happen once i think i altered the bevel .1mm to force it to redraw.
    now do all that sort of stuff in PS

    OK, will try those suggestions(having to create it from new is a right pain!) as I don’t use PS

    I seem to be having a pixelation problem in general though or maybe I’m just blocking things physcomalociacallycally! 🙂

    Harry, just zoom out and back in – the pixelation will disappear. Not sure how or why tho !
