You can turn off anti-aliasing for fonts with DeviceFont but it only

works with the whole HTML file and only for Windows and only if the

visitor has rhe exact font installed. 


My experiance with Devicefont when used with Flash has been less than

satisfactory with variations on how well it works varied even within

Windows. I just suggest you leave DeviceFont unchecked.
