    Smooth Edges

    Ok so I am sitting here at the Ski Shop trying to smooth out the pixleated edges on a text logo so it looks, and prints clean and crisp, problem is I am having mucho trouble any help would be appreciated, all tutorials I have found have been for just single shape images not text images, I posted an example at the bottom.
    By the way I am using CS4

    The PSD you posted has all the layers merged into one (flattened) and the text is no longer editable.

    It would be helpful to see what you did before the image was flattened, do you have a version with layers intact?

    Your image needs to be set to a higher resolution.

    You need to start over with the resolution set to 240 or 300.

    that's strange I could not download the psd earlier
    What I would do is increase the resolution to about 500 then use the pen tool and redraw it it stroking the center line path to overlap the ugly lowres areas looks fairly simple but a little time consuming, after all is said and done then bring the size down a few notches......
