Re: FLASH: Need help-Broken text looks clean again

[Byron Canfield]

The Anti-Alias Text setting only affects the Flash editor and has no impact

on the exported SWF. You have two options: use device fonts for that

"aliased" look (though you cannot, then, manipulate "pieces" of letters and

have little control over the font used), or create jagged edges, yourself,

either with vectors (jagged enough that they don't "auto-smooth") or with a

lossless bitmap.


The "Generate Size Report" is in the Save As Movie dialog (export

function), and does not appear when doing a Test Movie or Test Scene.
