Just wanted to ask if there is a way to get a better quality fonts from a 24bit tga. The examples below are ok but always seem blocky and unprofessional, especially the O and S. Would appreciate any assistance. Would also be interested if anyone has a load of created fonts and wants to sell them. best regards, Rob

When using this graphics format your fonts will be rendered with smooth borders. And you can also use semi-transparent fonts. You can find the link for downloading my Font-Generator in my signature.
