With FontFlasher, our pixelfont creator, you can turn any font into a pixelfont giving a crisp appearance in Adobe Flash.
Flash uses TrueType fonts, but in smaller sizes, these fonts can look fuzzy (see example at right). FontFlasher converts almost any format font into pixelfonts ? crisp outline fonts that simulate bitmaps. This improves legibility of screen text in small font sizes.
Note: FontFlasher requires FontLab Studio or TypeTool or TransType to generate a font in TrueType or Type 1 format.
