Default Re: Embedding Fonts

Create the "text" you desire (formatted with the final color, background, etc.) in Publisher, save as JPG, then clean up using a Photo-editor (crop, despeckle, etc.), and re-save this image at the exact size you need it to be.
Insert this image, which will now present to all visitors exactly without reformation.

**This works well unless you have large issues for fonts, and then it seems to present fuzzy. The only way to avoid this resolution issue is to use a graphics software program, one such as successfully used by other VodaMembers at an extremely affordable cost from Xara.

TYVM
(thank you very much)
I am ready to simply pop for the Xtreme (all 3 in one bundle) just to make it easier on me, and allow me greater options down the road.
I am soooo tired of doing the mickey-mouse way, and since the 'tutorial' looked so easy (like BV) I think I can now get maximum use out of my 2100 fonts using this medium........

Typically, fonts look better if they are saved in .gif format

Try creating a GIF in the widely available Publisher to 'stablize' a font-based image to insert in BV8, and you will see why JPG is the optimal choice....
