Hello Everyone,

I would like to learn more about how to anti alias the text on my pages. I use this feature in my graphics program for banners, but how do you use it for larger blocks of text? I usually just type in the text in my HTML editor and adjust it with CSS. Is there another way?

thanks,

Block

As far as I know you can only adjust things like that in graphics. Large text in html always looks bad so if you want headers or whatever do them as graphics.

The way to anti-alias your text is to use a Mac or turn on the "smooth screen fonts" feature in Windows. I won't know if Linux has a similar option.

I accidentally turned on my smooth screen feature once and it looked really funky. I didn't like it.
