When I put a text box in capture. The font looks fine.
When I insert the image into Flare, the text is bold and/or fuzzy?
Tried changing font size/ checking if bold is on.... no help..
Please provide a solution!

Re: Font looks completely different in Flare
I have a very vague memory of this from several years ago, and I think it was something to do with the transparent background. Sorry I can't be more specific but that might point you in the right direction. And I don't think it was specific to Capture either.
Good luck!

I think the issue mentioned by ChoccieMuffin is also the reason why you're getting that grey line (I had that same issue in the past).
I seem to remember fixing it by right-clicking on the image, going to File Properties, then in the Appearance tab, changing the Background to Solid and Fill Start to white.

Could it also be that you are saving this as a gif image with a limited color range or something similar? (I'm not sure what you are saving it as--just throwing some suggestions out there).

I think the transparency was an issue. It seems to be better without transparency, but so far that means I have to save my pictures first with non-transparent whitespace where I want to have callouts - and I haven't discovered yet how to do that in Capture...

1. Right-click on the image
2. Select File Properties
3. Click on the Appearance tab
4. Change the Background to Solid and Fill Start to white (make sure you actually click on the the white square and not a transparent one).
Re: Font looks completely different in Flare
OK, something was puzzling me, because I never get this issue with the text even when I'm placing text boxes outside of the image, even with a transparent background. Turns out I do my text boxes with a white background (i.e. the background of the text box itself is white). Might be another option for you, although you would still get that grey line at the edge of the image.
To change the background of the text box:
1. Right-click on the text box (rather than the main image) and select Properties.
2. Click on Appearance tab (you'll probably already be in there).
3. Change Background to Solid and Fill Start to white.
Good luck!
