Hi,

I have prepared an ad using Photoshop, saving it as a TIFF. It includes five lines of plain text, as well as three graphic images and some text enhanced with effects.

I wonder, would the plain text look better/clearer/sharper if I used the Photoshop images but created the ad in a program like Pagemaker? I set the text in Photoshop as crisp/regular Arial.

You actually have more anti-alias preferences then you would in a page layout program. I wouldn’t bother.

The only time you would utilize a page layout program is when you are working with a text heavy project. For one-page, light-text ads, I keep to Illustrator and Photoshop. If your ad is text-heavy (tables, lot’s of copy…) then I would use InDesign. (or PageMaker I guess.)
