DVD Architect Text Issues at DVinfo.net

Hi folks,

I figured I'd post this here since Architect is closely related with Vegas. So here's my problem, I've been working with Architect trouble-free for quite some time now but all of a sudden in my latest project, the links do not show up on the menus! Everything seems to work and look fine in preview within the program, but when burnt to a disc and played back over any DVD player (TV, PC, etc), only the highlighted link shows up!

The font I used is a standard Windows font (Lucida Sans) and the highlight setting is "Text mask overlay."

I've never had this issue before and haven't changed anything as far as I know with regards to past projects, so what am I doing wrong?

First thought...

Try using a couple of short clips (so the build doesnt take too long) and make a disk using a different font.

>Any< file on a computer can get corrupted and maybe something is screwy with the font. Trying a different one may point you in the direction....

What version of DVD Architect?

If you're not on the most current release, you may try updating.
