In 2013 she won a Three Week's Editor's Choice Award naming her one of the ten best things about the Edinburgh Fringe. She performs at major clubs including Manford’s, The Stand, The Comedy Store and Piccadilly Comedy Club as well as alternative venues such as Quantum Leopard, What The Frock, Bring Your Own Baby and The Poodle Club. She performs stand-up comedy all over the UK and around the world and is currently touring her 16th one-woman show, Humanity's Last Hope, which premiered at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. She is also the host and star of the News at Kate video series. Kate Smurthwaite is a left-wing, feminist, atheist, polyamorous comedian and activist. As seen on Question Time, Newsnight and the XR front lines. But that is only for effects on bigger text, like logos, headlines and so on.Award-winning comedian and activist, Kate Smurthwaite, takes one last hopeful shot at saving us all from global fascist-led environmental armageddon. Last I gave the whole thing a layer effect ("Emboss") to insinuate that you can even do nice things with text in ArtRage. ![]() The second sample I wrote in Inkscape, adapted the horizontal kerning of the text to get those clean connections and made a stencil outoff it. There is no option in ArtRage to get a clean connection between them, accept by creating the letters on different layers and puzzle a bit. And the second point: notice the connections between the "e" and the "x" and between the "x" and the "t" of the word "Text". I also noticed this in some other programs. By some reason - I don't know why - ArtRage cuts the top of the initials. The first one I wrote directly in ArtRage. If you suggest to print your artwork in a professional way, this will result in a much higher quality than if you print pixelized text.Įdit: To illustrate what I told above, here are two samples. And the finished layout should be exported as *.pdf. In case of emergency you can also use vector graphics software like Inkscape, Illustrator, CorelDraw or Affinity Designer to combine pixel images with text. To combine images with text is the purpose of DTP-, respectively Layout-Programs like InDesign, Quark XPress, Affinity Publisher or Scribus (wich is also free and open source). The fonts will always have sharp edges for best legibility. That warrants that they can be scaled without a loss of quality. Truetype, Opentype, Type 1 and other fonts are based on vector graphics. ArtRage has always been well known for traditional media, and that hasn’t changed in ArtRage 5. But you should do that only with text that is larger than 14 points. I have made that several times and it works pretty fine and produces nice results. Than you can put the text onto your image by painting over the stencil. So my subjective advice is to create the text with another software (I use to make it with Inkscape, if needed, a vector graphics software that is free and open source), export it as a *.png, import it in ArtRage and make a stencil outoff it. Especially small text sizes shouldn't be set in pixel based programs - because of the pixels that make the text look unsharp. I think that it's generally not the core competence of pixel based software to work with text. So you wont be able to create a text in an optimal aesthetic and a reasonable professional typograhic way in ArtRage. There are no adjustments to balance the kerning of a text or even the line spacing and stuff like that. ArtRage offers only a verry few options to work with text.
