BenQ PB7200 projector question, help me please

3mors

HampCake Studios
I own a BenQ PB 7200 projector that runs at 1024x768 natively.
When I connect it to my GeForce 4 Titanium on mac or on my Radeon 9200 on pc both at 1024x768, the "aliased" text seems blurred, but the projector menu (preferences of the projector) on screen is perfect
the focus is perfect so i dont know how to fix this problem

i dont know if i'm explaining in a good way
i try to create a simple picture to show what i mean
please look at the attachment

Hmm... looks like there's some kind of text anti-aliasing being done, either at the projector level or at the computer level. Check the BenQ options for an anti-aliasing or smoothing option for text.

thanks man, but i've already checked evry menu and submenu and there's no mention of anti-aliasing or something like that, either on the manual.
i've also tried to set the phase but with no luck

it seems that the computer recognized the projector as an CRT monitor even if i specify LCD on preferences
so i don't know if it's a projector question or a computer question
 
Did you check the minimum anti-aliasing font size in the System Preferences -> Appearance? Maybe increasing the number will help you out?!
 
yes, already checked
if i use mirror displays, on my lcd the font is ok, on projector no
 
So, the point is that if you would make a screenshot of your screen with the text and compare it to the regular text, the screenshot would be ok but the original text would look blurry on your beamer, right?

mmmm no
if i make a screenshot on lcd or projector, the picture is the same, but if i look it from the projector the text inside the screenshot is blurred

the point is:
the text on projector seems blurred even if the focus is ok
as a matter of fact the text inside the projector menu is fine
 
Hmm, something still seems to confuse me. What happenes is you draw a line on some paint app? And does the text look that blurry in any app? Some applications have a different "way" to display fonts.
The confusing part for me - as it surely is for you as well - is that pics are not blurry, but text is..
