[Resolved] [Resolved] [Resolved] Anti-Alias Pixel Based Fonts Tut , links & resources

There have been a few questions re "small fonts", anti-alias, crisp text etc etc.

This short movie demonstrates the absolute basics of using Pixel based fonts and provides links.

Also below are some forum links of value on the topic..
The following two links also discuss issues with pixel based fonts, jbruski's ideas on alignment and a thread on ensuring alignment when used within sprites.

I hope some of the above is of some use. Also dont forget to visit the font forum at Flashkit

Jofta..( busy building a site using the damm things :) )

sorry, but i've removed this file from my server after having sent emails to some of the font developers and finding out that they weren't exactly overwhelmed.

i've deleted the thread as well.

i fully understand the developers point of view (thanks for being very mild altogether :) ), don't know how i'd feel about it if i'd find my hard work stored for download on another server without comment.
