Font Help - 3/13/2008 16:09:10   
When I view my webpages in IE the font looks like it's shadowed and fuzzy and just plain wrong...

Does anyone know how to fix this?

What font are you using? and is it just text or have you stuck it in a text box or something equally awful like a graphic.

RE: Font Help - 3/14/2008 10:10:47   
The best way that I can describe it is this:

The words when I type them look normal. However, when I view the file as a webpage, the outline of the words go all fuzzy and the words looks wrong. I'm not sure how to screenshot or anything... I'm a complete newbie to it all...

Thanks,

Jay

the problem is the text box. take all of that out and just use a table (assuming you're not up to using cascading style sheets and divs;)
and make the table background blue, type the text in and style it to look something like the button you had. set the cell properties to centred vertically and horizontally.

Do you know why it was doing that to the text when I was using the text boxes? It just started happening all of a sudden a few days ago - before that it was fine... I was wondering if I had changed something that could have caused it...

It's just annoying because I can't use tables or anything... the design mode was the only thing I could use!

:)

Sorry for being a bother,

Jay

not sure - it's just an MS thing ;)

remember to stay away from all of those MS 'aids' and you will be ok :)
