I have a text field. This is set to static text, pt. 9, arial, use device fonts.

On a PC this is shown with no problems, but on a mac, this happens:

It is very weird. It is one textfield, and some of the text is antialiased, some is not. I don't get it.

My textfield is in a movieclip. Both the textfield and the movieclip is placed on rounded numbers like x: 0.0, y: 0,0 on my scene.

Has anyone experienced this before?

After a long time adjusting this and that, I found a solution. Instead of using Arial I chose a bitmap font, made the textfield into a dynamic textfield and embedded the font. This didn't do the trick. No, I had to export to Flashplayer 7 instead of 6. Voila! Crispy text. Both on PC and Mac.
