Just a thought - does Windows font smoothing/cleartype effect the 'look' of fonts in Blitz?
I know it did in Blitzplus because I turned smoothing on to get better results with Beaker's FONText.
One more thing - just checked the docs and FILTEREDIMAGE is on by default. Tried using 0 for the flags param?
I did have this problem myself when I first started with Blitzmax, and I remember finding a way around it... just can't quite remember what I did.
