Turn off anti-aliasing for fonts in Flash?

Question

Flash can use 2 types of fonts such that they can be changed at runtime by actionscript.

• system fonts - NOT anti-aliased so renders fast
• embedded fonts - anti-aliased so renders slow

The problem with "system fonts" is that you can't rotate the text. Can I use embedded fonts AND turn off the anti-aliasing so it renders fast?

Answer 1

Do you mean setting the AntiAliasType ?

textField.antiAliasType = AntiAliasType.NORMAL;
