What’s up 🍺

I am building a flash movie in which I use many dynamic text fields for which I load the text from external text files.

All the respective fonts are embedded, and all necessary characters’s outlines are included for export.

I am using soft edges (anti-alias?) :cons:

The .ttf is also in the folder. (By the way it’s Verdana)

---------- BUT ---------- :trout:

There is something wrong about it. The text is not displayed very nicely, the quality is a bit poor (not drastically).

I found somewhere a function that Flash uses to define the textfield’s quality:

MyTextfield.\_highquality;

But I don’t know if this “MyTextfield” is the textfield’s variable name or it’s instance name :red:

Anyway I tried both ways and I dont get it to make any difference.

All I want is to make this textfields have the BEST possible visible quality.

Does anyone have a clew??? :hangover:
