I have been checking the "use Device Fonts” in the text properties box and noticing how tight and clean your text looks when rendered.

I then put my text inside of a movie clip so I can scroll it, and the text looks as if I am not using “use Device Fonts”, even thou I am.

Anyone else see this happening?
