Hi, I got a problem embedding fonts in my swf. I got a pixelfont from FFF (font is atlantis) I put some text in a movieclip and at the font parameters i set it to “embed all characters”, when i view the swf in my browser the fonts is blurred again altho i embedded a pixelfont. I tried several things but i don’t seem to manage to get the font right, unblurred. Can anyone help me here? i mean, there are dozens of sites who use pixelfonts which i don’t happen to have installed on my pc and display unblurred?? :q: thanks! ---

Ok, next problem, i’m setting the X and Y positions of my objects now but for one or another reason when i put the X coord to 6.0 it automatically sets it to 5.9 I tried several things but none worked ---

yeah, that sucks, but try to set it 6.0 several times, oh, maybe try this: View \>\> Snap to pixels. Maybe this will help, don’t know. ---
