Issues with Adding Jersey Text

[mrlux]

For me, this is a big issue for an otherwise great feature they added this year. From what I have been able to figure out with the fonts on jerseys is this:

Jersey font will be small or squished if the following is done:
1. Creating a space between words. (Example: APP STATE)
2. Adding a font outline (if using almost or all spaces available)

Hopefully they can fix the back end coding on the font recognition as I am sure this is NOT how they intended for this feature to carry over into the game itself. Its a shame that you can create the PERFECT jersey with text on the front in teambuilder only to have it come out completely different in the game.

WORK AROUNDS UNTIL EA ADDRESSES OR FIXES THIS ISSUE:
FIX #1
-Depending on how many letters you are using, you can work with extra spaces to alter font size. (example: you can add spaces before and after the text and it will change the sizing of the jersey font) I tried this when creating Nicholls States' home jersey to which they only have a "N" on the front and when I added it on teambuilder the "N" was HUGE in the game. It was like the letter was trying to fill up the entire space on the jersey. So after several minutes of changing the font style and size, to which nothing helped. I then decided to try something crazy and put some spaces in front of the "N" and some spaces after so that it remained centered and IT WORKED. I got the font size I needed.

FIX #2
-When you're adding jersey text with an outline that uses all available spaces or almost all spaces, it will come out very very narrow and close together. The only way around this is to unfortunately drop the outline. No matter what font style or size you choose, it just wont work. Although I have been able to get some text to look pretty good by using the STANDARD font over the college. Standard font appears small in teambuilder but in game actually fills the jersey all the way across(depending on what size you use).

These are just a couple of somewhat workarounds I have discovered while created my 98 FCS teams so far in teambuilder but there is no doubt there is a bug in the font recognition/adjustment filter from teambuilder to the game. Hopefully these examples help and I hope a EA dev sees this and puts it in the hat of items to work on.
