Question - IDE Fonts going crazy

Hi!,
I've imported a GM1.4 project to GM2 and it is not working properly. One of the problems is that the fonts are not good! Look at this comparision:

OLD

NEW new.png

NEW new2.png

There is something wrong definetely, but I don't have any idea why. As well, some fonts do not anti-aliasing when it is set to "yes".

Some fonts look really strange at odd sizes in GMS2. Simply changing the size in the IDE might help, then you can compensate with code. For example, see what happens when I change one of my fonts from size 36 to 33.

Nice reply!,
I'm changing the fonts right now, but there are 2 remaining issues (my fault I didn't mention them):
- The fonts cannot be put in italics?
- Why the fonts have changed position? (from 1.4)

Not sure about that. Maybe they were imported from the image file GM generates from fonts rather than the actual .ttf/.otf located on your computer. Try re-importing all of them.
