Subject: FLASH: Bug: Difference in font leading: Apple Macintosh vs. MS-Windows
From: Jan Oosterhuis

In my case different people (with different computers) are working on
the same Flash project.
To avoid problems with the use of fonts I created (with Fontographer)
(truetype) sets of fonts for both Apple Macintosh and MS-Windows. (In
Fontographer both fonts are exactly the same.)
But in the Flash movies I see a slight difference between the Mac and
Windows versions in the leading, depending on and varying with the
font size.
It appears the difference is caused by different rounding-off
methods, so it's only noticeable at smaller font sizes.
