come off vs come across

Is this how a native speaker would say it?

He comes off/across as normal to me. People say he is weird but I don't see it.
Thanks

You could use either. There's no difference in meaning, as far as I'm concerned, but the version with 'across' seems a little tiny bit more formal.
