Text partly invisible with P3D renderer

Hi, thanks for the idea, but for me, it does not work. I need the output image to be 6000x4000 pixel.
So I have to use textLayer.save(outfile);
I also adjusted the text size to 1.000 which is the required output text size.

If I adjus this, I have the same problem using your code

Here is your adjusted code I am using:

public class Test3D_V2 extends PApplet {

	PGraphics textLayer;
	int iwidth = 800;
	int iheight = 600;
	String sfont = "Arial";
	int mainFontSize = 1000;

	String outfile = "data/3dtest.png";
	
	public static void main(String[] args) {

		String[] a = { "MAIN" };
		Test3D_V2 fw = new Test3D_V2();
		PApplet.runSketch(a, fw);
	}

	public void settings() {
	  size(iwidth, iheight, P3D);
	}

	public void setup() {
	  colorMode(RGB, 255);
	  textLayer = createGraphics(6000, 4000, P3D);
	  textLayer.beginDraw();
	  textLayer.background(0,0,80);
	  textLayer.textAlign(CENTER);
	  textLayer.textFont(createFont(sfont, mainFontSize));
	  textLayer.fill(color(255, 255, 255));
	  textLayer.translate(0, 0, 20);  // change 200 to 20 to see full string
	  textLayer.text("California", 3000, 2000);
	  
	  textLayer.save(outfile);
	  
	  textLayer.endDraw();
	  println("click canvas and use:\nkey [p] to save picture");
	}

	public void draw() {
	  background(200,200,0);   // should never be visible! or printed
	  image(textLayer,0,0);    // show first what you created
	}

	public void keyPressed() {
	  if ( key == 'p' )  {
	    save(outfile);
	    // textLayer.save(outfile);   // can NOT use!
	    println("saved to "+outfile);
	  }
	}

}

The Idea of quark does indeed work, but I would like to use the P3D renderer. I also tried hamoid’s ideas but it lead to the same error.

I am open for any other idea to make P3D work. Thanks.
