hey there
ive noticed that when i change from a static text box to dynamic the edge smoothing of the text no longer occurs… yet ive seen pages with what i belive is dynamic text have the smooth edges on the text…
how do i do it?
Thanks VoS

You have to embed the font.
First:
In the top right corner of your library, click the dropdown menu and hit new font. Select the font you want.
Next:
In the Text Box properties select the font you embedded and hit the character… button and select All Characters.
That should do it hopefully.
