problems with text in gif image on web page, suggestions???
Subject:problems with text in gif image on web page, suggestions??? From:Michael Little <ur004135 -at- MAIL01 -dot- MEL -dot- AONE -dot- NET -dot- AU> Date:Fri, 15 Aug 1997 18:32:13 +0000
Hello,
I seem to be having problems generating large text with a drop
shadow on my web page:
The text edges appear to be jagged, and the drop show seems to be
pixelated. Yet when I view the image in a bitmap editor such as paint
shop pro, the edges appear clean (to test this right mouse click on
the image, and save it to a file, and view it in a bitmap editor).
1. what is causing this problem?
2. What can I do to fix this problem? Is there a special setting or
HTML I need to include to overcome this problem?
