I can't figure out why the font Myriad looks like trash in Dreamweaver and Fireworks but looks so perfectly beautiful in Photoshop? Does anyone have any insight on this?
thanks

i'd like to take it a step further and ask; Why do all Macromedia Apps look and run like crap on the Mac? It's a damn shame and it's gone on too long. They still haven't even gotten the Flash plug-in right yet! Boycott Macromedia for life. There are plenty of better alternatives out there. Sorry for being absolutely no help to your initial question. I have a compulsion to bash Macromedia whenever possible.

There isn't a better alternative to Flash at all nor is there a better alternative to Director. You could argue the Dreamweaver part a little.
