How would one make text in Flash crisp? It seems a little bit blurry..... Thanks
Is it possible for it be copy/pasteable?

do you know about the tricks that go along with using pixel fonts in Flash?
if not, its been covered before, use the DB...

alos, it is possible that your text is "dynamic" , in which case, either make it "static" or include outlines in the prop menu.

well.. if you're lookin for crisp fonts, you wanna be usin dynamic txt fields..
if its givin you a whole other font and you're using dynamic fields, you can switch to static to fix that.. or just embed the font.

I'm using DINN.. so I just need to assign it dynamic?
- nick0
if you're using DIN, and you want your shit dynamic, you're gonna want to embed the font.
if you're using DIN and it doesnt need to be dynamic, just use static fields (and you should have no problem)

nick.. check my site real quick. doesn't it seem blury? Is that as good as it gets?
- jevad0
thats just flash blurring the text a bit dude
- nick0
ahh i see what you mean.
if you're using DIN (which obviously isnt a pixel font).. at that size, thats about as good as it gets.
if you want that crisp pixel font look, then you gotta use a pixel font (along with a dynamic txt field), or a font that will look good as dynamic text. (like verdana, arial)

I don't know if anyone mentioned the fact Flash blurs text if it isn't on a whole pixel...
Say that the x or y location is on 1.7
round it up to an even 2. That should help.
