    Blurry Text

    Hello.
    I was wondering if there is any way to make the text/fonts sharper in Flash MX. The text looks fuzzy at point size 12 and under.

    Thanks,
    Ken

    Yes, there is several ways of doing it.
    First, you can select "use device fonts" in text properties. That way font will be sharp, but user will see the same font as you created only if he has that font installed.
    Second, you can set your text to dinamic and click on character- all characters. That way fonts will be less blury, but file size will grow.
    Finaly, there are some fonts that use specific sizes- set their size to 8, 16, 32 or any number that can be divided by 8 and set text position to whole pixels (for instance 5.0 and not 5.2- x and y positions).
    Hope this helps
