I am having a weird problem:

While using a Pixel font (FFF Business), if I don’t embed the source the text looks sharp and clear in my computer. When I embed it, it looks blurred. I thought it should be just the opposite! Anybody has any idea what’s going on?

im having the same problem as well and the FFF users guide was of no help. yes, all my text boxes are on whole numbers and yes, im using size 8 font. when the font is NOT embedded everything is fine. once you embed it, it gets blurry. ive never run into this problem before. any suggestions?

try embedding them, and then uploading them. look at them on another box without the font installed. i had that same problem, but that took care of it. hope youre as lucky

Check in the transform panel if the textfield is scaled?
