Bad Print Text Effect

Grimy print misregistration turns clean type into streaky vertical ghosts, as if the ink dragged down the page. The look reads grunge, mimicking bad print mechanics.

The resource ships as a high-quality PSD with a Smart Object and built-in invert option. Its vibe fits punk and indie gig posters, zine titles, festival promos, horror or thriller book covers, lo-fi album sleeves, t-shirt designs, skate and streetwear branding, as well as social posts.

This resource is created, and fully compatible with Adobe Photoshop. For the best experience, we recommend to use the latest Creative Cloud version of the app.
