[thelist] Flash aliased text

[Bart Johnston]

One other thing that I've noticed when using non-anti-aliased text is that
even if you have your text field lined up so that it is on a whole number
pixel value, when you do a test movie in flash, that text will still
anti-alias.  If you really want to see whether you've got it set up right,
you need to do a publish preview (F12 - on PC).

Also, I think that you really need to use a font that if made specifically
for bitmap use, meaning it usually will not have a postscript or vector
portion.
