FLASH: Text Symbols "breaking up"

[Jim Duber]

Greetings all,


I just got feedback from QA for a project I'm currently working on, saying,

"The bottoms of the g's, y's, and p's are funny...". They also mentioned

some other spots in the same movie where the "bottoms" of letters were

"funny".


Personally, I can find nothing funny at all. The items in question are

symbols based on simple text fields, the same size and font as all the

other (unfunny) ones throughout the entire movie. There are no effects

being used on these instances, nor are they overlapped by anything else on

the stage. I see nothing funny on 3 different monitors (2 mac, 1 pc) and

I've even experimented with different bit depths.


The clients say it only happens on a couple of their machines, But so far,

I haven't been able to get any more specifics (other than that "funny"

seems to mean that the bottoms of the letters were breaking up. I've

already done a save-as and renamed the file, but that didn't help. I am

about to copy and paste the entire movie into a new, blank file and hope

that'll take care of it.


Otherwise, I'm all out of ideas and was wondering if this sort of thing

rung a bell with any of you. Sure would appreciate any suggestions at this

point.


Thanks and all the best,


Jim
