How to turn off anti-aliasing on an embedded font

I have a pixel font from www.fontsforflash.com. I have embedded it using flex then loaded the swf in flash CS4 to make it available. But its very blurry 开发者_StackOverflow中文版and I can find a way to turn off anti-aliasing in as3.

Its the right size and placed with whole numbers. The reason I have embedded this method is because I don't want to load an entire font library.

Is there a way I can turn off anti-aliasing or is there a better way to embed my font?

Thanks

when you embed your font make sure you select the "bitmap text" check box in the Font Symbol Properties panel (in Flash) to insure the font has no anti-alias.

i don't recall if CS4 had this option, but in Flash CS5 you can select View > Snapping > Snap To Pixels so that all of your placed assets will have rounded x and y coordinates. it will do the same thing as the code posted by PatrickS.

If it's a pixel font , don't forget that the x & y values must be integers. You'll probably need to do something like this.

textfield.x = Math.round( whateverX );
textfield.y = Math.round( whateverY );

and probably the same thing for the parent!
