CSS – Site Design Basics Part One
by: Michael J Medeiros

If used properly, CSS can accomplish those tasks, while reducing bandwidth and increasing page-load timeframes.

This is good when dealing with large type but it causes small text to appear blurry. Earlier versions of Flash also had other issues. For instance if one were to realign textfields around other objects fonts might come out of focus (because of positioning), and getting it right could take several tries.
