[color=darkblue]K, here’s the deal… I’m in Flash MX, right? I start a new scene, right? I select a certain pixel-kind-of font, and I type something in Static text. When I preview, the text isn’t clear, isn’t kind of blurry. Then I read a tutorial here on Kirupa.com, saying you need to use dynamic text. So I use dynamic text and tedaaah, nice crystal-sharp text in preview. Hooray! But when I publish the thingy on the net, it seems that people who don’t have the pixel font, see the text in that crappy Times New Roman. So I come on to this forum, and they tell me I have to “embed the font”. So I embed the dynamic text. And I preview. And guess what? It’s blurry again!:hangover: So I’m getting pretty frustrated over here! What should I do to have the crystal clear font I get when using dynamic text, but make it accesible to people who don’t have the font? I know it’s possible, coz you see those small fonts on hundreds of sites… Please help me, for I’m desperate =) [/color]
embedding the font makes it fuzzy, if you are using pixel fonts, embed it and make sure that the text box is on exact pixels. Its x/y values are rounded numbers, no decimals 50 (not 50.3)
[color=darkblue]Should I embed the static or the dynamic text?[/color]
if you use static text it is automatically embeded. I don’t think it matters eitherway in terms of file size…
[color=darkblue]Okay, I think I’ve got the hang of it… For now at least Thx for your help [/color]
