I try do do a simple drop shadow (no transparency, no blur) with CorelDraw X6, but recently it only creates very ugly pixels and not a fine vector. See the settings for the shadow on my screenshots. The major problem is that i get the pixels also when i export the document to any other format (pdf, jpg).
I've tried to change the resolution of the document from 300 dpi to 2400 dpi, that helps a bit but could not be the solution to this problem!?I've started CorelDraw X6 with holding F8 key and resetted all Options, that didn't helped at allWhat am I doing wrong?
The drop shadow with standard document settings
This Image is with a document resolution of 2400 dpi
This image shows the settings of the document i've changed from 300 dpi to 2400 dpi
This Image show the standard settings with the pixel problem!
You're creating the drop shadow as a transparent shadow, just duplicate the object set the color of the new object to the shadow color and send it behind the originalobject and position as dsired
Drop shadows are lenses with bitmap pattern transparency, no matter if they are transparent or not. When you set feathering to a very low value they will look awful, as you have already found. Do as David suggested but instead of duplicate, use Clone. Move the clone behind the original text object and give it desired fill. If you change the text, all you have to do is right click the clone and select Revert To Master, check Clone Fill and click OK, then give the shadow the correct fill again. Not ideal but it works.
