Question for Fireworks user
 

[IMG]http://***********/shyte.gif[/IMG]

See how the bottom part of the 'y' gets chopped off? How can I adjust Fireworks so that it doesn't do it with certain fonts? :helpme

make the canvas bigger and pull a CTRL + ALT + T
that wll trim it to size

Sometimes it cuts off the top of certain fonts too.

that is not the issue. I trimmed the canvas already... but the blue box that comes up when clicking on the font in the canvas seems to limit the font's height. and I can't pull it down either.

all I can do is to hit enter and create a new line. then the full 'y' comes up

im a litle confused...but what you could also do is just make the canvas 3-4 pixels taller and just click your text and use the arrow key to up it just enuff so it doesnt get cutoff.

sorry i couldnt be more help

No, he's saying that the text tool is cutting off the bottom of the letters of some fonts. I've seen it do it to the top of some fonts too.

I have the same problem - I've read everything I can get my hands on and still can't get it right.

Now if I need to put some text into an image I just go back to an old copy of Photoshop

ahhhh i understand now.....I even opened fireworks to see if any my cursive fonts do the same, it appears they dont.
Try doing a search in google or a fireworks board Equinox

another thing....
If you havent already tried Fireworks MX, do it noW!
It fucking rocks!!!!!
