so... I need a font that's a dot matrix style font... and not fonts for flash's 'phantom' because that's too big.
i'll buy the font... i'm just looking for a good flash pixel font.
Any suggestions on where to look for other pixel fonts like the style I'm talking about?... and that are dependable in flash? (meaning I'm going to buy it... none of the dafont pixel fonts are worth a shit in flash - they always lose their centers or soemthing else is distorted)...
thx!

i was going to say phantom till i read the rest of the post : /
not sure. let me check around. that's kinda tricky to find smaller 'cause of the tiny size and there needing to be an empty pixel between each block though, ya know?

lvl... you're preaching to the choir.
:)
thanks for looking - i'm still looking too.. I'll let you know if I find something.

coming up empty : \
didn't k10k have one similar to phantom?
other than that i could only find vegas regular (not the crappy one that shows up when you search for it on google) but i only have the dotted outline version (and have no idea where i got it originally) so that's no good either.
any luck?

none yet... but I think I remember what you're talking about w/the k10k font...

kyl3... that's a bit too big -
I did find one so far: 00matrix

it's okay - tough to look at in their preview... the letter spacing seems a little harsh

a bit harsh but nice! only .25?!

maybe too big, but...

00matrix
cant get much smaller than that im afraid, even trying to remove one more row of pixels, will render B's and S's just like a 3x3 grid of 9 pixels
. . .
. . .
. . .unless someone has come up with something a bit clever AND also legible with 3x3 [in this dot matrix style]
i say go for it, ive been looking and all Ive found was larger fonts
if i may ask, why the need for a small size?

(Dec 8 05, 17:16)yep that is the same height as 00matrix, but a bit wider, and makes use of both odd/even pixel rows..
quite nice actually
