import text image  in Dreamweaver

Aug 12, 2012 12:52 AM

Hi All

 

I have designed some text headings (which are in colour) with a transparent background  in fireworks and exported it (gif) to Dreamweaver. That is all good. But when I place the text image (as a background image) in Dreamweaver the text has (in places) white edges which I dont want. Any ideas why this is happening???

 

Any advice

 

Paul

    The effect that you're experiencing is known as "jaggies". When exporting from Fireworks, you need to set the Matte colour picker to a similar colour to your background.

     

    A better solution, though, would be to use an embedded web font. You can get a lot of free webfonts from www.fontsquirrel.com. Alternatively, if you're using the Creative Cloud, you have access to a lot of TypeKit fonts.
