Hi,
I am trying to use PE to reduce by a factor of 50% the size of a screenshot image. The image is pretty much a flat colored background with text. The image is considerably degraded by this process. The text is made very fuzzy and almost impossible to read. I have tried all resampling settings and none are adequate.
By comparison, I tried the same process with Macromedia Fireworks with markedly better results.
I find it hard to accept that Photoshop is inferior to Fireworks. Any offers as to what I am doing wrong or how to improve the results?
