Hi!  
Yes, I’ve read the tutorial about making crisp pixel fonts: multiples of 8 (depending on the specific font), on an exact pixel, dynamic text, multiline, etc etc.

But following the instructions and embedding the font results in a blurry mess. (the exact reason this font was purchased)

Is there any way to embed a font and not have it blurry?!!??

Are my only crisp options ariel and verdana, even in flash?
