How do I make good resolution, small text on a SurfaceGui


I'm trying to make a part with a surface GUI on it and a text label with a very small text size text on it, like 2-8 font size, but when i do the resolution makes it unreadable and I want to make it small and still have good resolution

This is how the text looks like when the text size is just 6px:

Solution

  • If your SurfaceGui's SizingMode is set to Enum.SurfaceGuiSizingMode.FixedSize, increase the CanvasSize.

    If your SurfaceGui's SizingMode is set to Enum.SurfaceGuiSizingMode.PixelsPerStud, increase the PixelsPerStud.

    With an effectively higher pixel-density, you can increase the size of your font so it won't be as distorted when it is sized to fit onto the surface.
