Text tool bug?

[ElNormo webforumsuser@macromedia.com]

I'm having problems with the text tool in Fireworks MX (not 2004)... See the following partial screenshot from Fireworks:

You'll notice the top "H" is chopped off, while the lower two characters are fine. Any suggestions?

Thanks

Norman

I'm not sure why this happens Norman, but I've had the same problems
especially with handwriting fonts.

Try selecting .... Text > Convert to Paths

This works for me.

Thanks! That did the trick. Not ideal, but it works.

I agree.

Has this problem been fixed in 2004?
