But, there are some easy fixes, as well as some things you can do from the get-go to avoid this pixelation problem to begin with. Pixelation problems with Procreate are usually due to the canvas size being too small. Procreate is a raster-based program, so if you zoom in too much, or your canvas is too small, you will always see some pixelation. With the right steps, you can make sure that every Procreate image comes out crisp and clean instead of blurry and pixelated.
In this case, knowing why it happens helps with knowing how to fix it. A lot of the issues with pixelated Procreate designs comes from having canvas sizes that are too small.
An easy fix is to create canvases that are aa big as possible without limiting the amount of layers that you need. Regardless, whenever you zoom in too much, you will always see pixelation. When you create a new canvas, make it as big as possible. Depending on the storage on your iPad, the bigger your canvas, the fewer layers you will have.

I use a lot of plain color backgrounds with my artwork. I will use Procreate to help me to decide what color to use for my background color. I will photograph the painting as far as it is completed, then I will use the Procreate app to test different types of background colors. This is a great example of how Procreate can help me save time and steps with my painting because it allows me to make decisions about my painting first on paper before I put a brush onto the canvas.
The Procreate app comes with a variety of different types of brushes. This means you can also test out other types of brush strokes or brushes on the Procreate app before putting them onto the canvas.

Kerning is a term applied specifically to the spacing adjustment of two particular text characters, to change or correct visual spacing.

By providing both kerning and tracking, Procreate enables you to make fine adjustments using either option separately, or both together. When you first add Text in Procreate it appears as vectors: shapes which stay crisp and perfect at any size. Some of the changes you can make to your text may cause Procreate to rasterize it.
Rasterizing changes vectors into pixels, like the rest of your artwork. Once your text is rasterized, it will behave like any other part of your artwork, and you can no longer edit it using the Text tool. You might notice pixellation if you zoom in or resize from small to large.

When your Procreate artwork isn't rendering correctly due to missing fonts, exit to the Gallery without editing text layers , import the missing fonts and reopen your artwork. Your artwork should now render correctly.

Your font layers will display correctly, but you will no longer be able to edit that text using the Text tool.
Be aware that when you edit a text layer with missing fonts, you will override the missing fonts and will no longer be able to return that layer to its original state.

Back in Procreate was originally conceived and developed as a universal iPad and iPhone app. The problem was that designing an interface that provided fluid painting on an iPhone screen, without getting in your way, was an immense challenge. Designing a product that felt intuitive on both devices meant we were making sacrifices in the iPad design in favor of the iPhone.
We had to make a choice. Eventually we dropped the iPhone and developed Procreate solely for iPad. Recently we found ourselves facing a problem similar to the one that inspired us to begin work on Procreate.
We were using iPhone apps for concept sketching, but we felt that all of them missed the mark. At the start of , we resurrected the idea of Procreate for the iPhone. We wanted the ability to quickly capture ideas when inspiration struck; to rapidly produce concepts complemented by the tools we needed.
Rumors of a larger iPhone began to surface, and we knew it was the perfect time. The short answer is that we made Procreate Pocket for the same reason we made Procreate: it's the app we wanted to use. When starting out with digital art, try drawing copies of existing images.
