Can anyone please tell me how to get pixel small fonts to work properly in flash mx for windows....?
I put the orientation marker in the info panel in the the top left... like I've been told. Put the X and Y values to whole numbers. But most of the time I still get type that goes in and out of blurriness.
HELP!
Thanks

make sure your text box hasn't been stretched and make sure that if your inside mc's that they are on whole pixels aswell.
And use the correct point size.

You really should make a sacrificial offering to the god of Flash before you begin any project. Then you'd probably get a lot better at it.

For most pixelfonts you have to use a specific fontsize. Try using font sizes of 8, 16, 24 etc.
I know there are some pixelfonts that just don't work in flash - don't know the names. Try using the 'standard' font from miniml.com. This one has always worked for me.
Be sure to have the display size of your flash movie set to 100%
Hope that helps...

you guys rock.
Things are looking a lot better.
I think that most of the fonts that aren't working are from this guy www.superlooper.de. The wanker.Thanks guys.
And thanks from my still unsacrificed goat.

Fuck sake - the guy makes free fonts for people and you call him a wanker.
And all this from a guy that uses patter like "you rock".

bad day at work mate?

i don't want to start WWIII but Sven (superlooper) has the skillz so calling him a wanker for creating, what you believe to be an inferior font, isn't really valid. Perhaps it is not the font that was at fault but you instead. You lacked the ability to figure out the solution to the problem on your own.
moral: think before you speak.

that's what i meant - your comments weren't valid.

Thank god! Guys, if I didn't have you around to tell me how to speak and act what would I do?! I'd be lost, I can tell you that! I've taken your Moral to heart and will from this day forward live my life according to those golden words.
PISS OFF
I just spent half a day trying to get these fonts to work. I have emailed your dear friend to tell him the sad truth about them. Because it was not me lacking any ability to get them working. It was the font that wasn't done properly. I think I can call him a wanker if I like.
DonnieTV, you DON'T ROCK.

A whole half day eh? There goes the budget.
You can call him a wanker if you like, just like I can say your a wanker for doing so. Good eh?
