Subtitles in DVD Studio Pro 'jagged'

I'm working on a DVD project in DVDSP and everything works great, except for one thing:

The subtitles are sort of jagged when viewing on computer screens and beamers. The production is set up in 16:9, using Helvetica Narrow as font. The fonts work fine in OSX. Choosing different fonts and using different workstations (G5, G4, Emac) doesn't fix it.

How can I get smooth (anti-aliased) text in my subtitles (like on TV...)?? Please respond or send me an email on lars@vdlp.nl or info@lars.dj

Thanx a lot!

If you want a decent answer in english I'll advice to visit the DVDSP forum in LA.

It's a common thing that tekst is jagged on computerscreens. Try to do the thing in FCP HD. I assumed you're only presenting your work on beamers and screens and not for authoring?
