Hello,
I am making a Flash website and I used pixelated font FFF Atlantis (from Fonts For Flash) as buttons. the problem is, they get blurred. Can anyone help me?

On a side note, whenever I lower the quality of the Flash movie (with the right-click) the font becomes clear...

WTF is going on?

when you lower the quality of the flash movie it disabled anti-aliasing -- that's why the font is becoming clear.

Look in the properties for the text and there's a little A button split in half -- the tooltip should say 'Alias text' or something like that. Click it, you want pixel-fonts to be aliased : )

Oooops. I'm on Flash MX. Maybe this is just in the 2004 edition.

^_^ This is the MX 2004 general help ; )

You're correct, this is only in the 2004 edition. The font should be more clear if it rests on exact pixels and the size is a multiple of it's ideal size. Outside of that I'm not sure what you can do : )

(if it's embedded in a movieclip, make sure that inside that movieclip it's on exact pixels and that the movieclip it's in is on exact pixels, etc... ^_^)
