I posted a question about why the dynamic text doesn’t show up if its within a mask…I was told to try embedding the font. It worked fine and all, but that was with the big font, now when I tried this solution over a tiny pixel font content, it comes out really ugly.

Is there anyway I can get the dynamic text to show up in a masked area without embedding? I tried breaking apart the text, but I guess dynamic text can’t be broken apart…any suggestions? I’m trying to make a scroller, so I need the masking to work…
