Hi, Kemikal, thanks for applying.

Unfortunately, you need to polish your skills a little more before you can typeset a series.

This is your assessment by Yothen, our Head Typesetter:

Before resubmitting, you are advised to learn from this guide:

Thank you very much, and good luck!

Hi, Kemikal, answers to your questions:

1. Rasterisation makes it difficult for the quality checker to make later changes to the text if necessary. You should only rasterise text when you need to apply a filter or effect (for example, Blur) that Photoshop only applies to objects and not to characters. And even in those cases, it is good practise to duplicate the layer that will be rasterised and hide the copy layer without rasterisation, so that you can use the copy for editing it later if you need to replace the original one.

2. You do the same test again. Once you make the necessary improvements and re-submit, it will be re-assessed and if the corrections are satisfactory, you will be approved.

Good luck!

You pass Kemikal, congratulations. There are some issues to be dealt with, though, and I've sent you a PM with details.
