Font embedding Font embedding and prevention of anti aliasing which is good for bitmap fonts:

embeed_font.as

//Embedding the font:
[Embed(source="FONT.ttf", fontName = "myFont", mimeType = "application/x-font-truetype",  advancedAntiAliasing="true", embedAsCFF="false")]
private var myEmbeddedFont:Class;
 
//Creating the textformat:
var defaultTextFormat : TextFormat = new TextFormat('myFont');
 
//Applying the font to a textfield:
myTextField.defaultTextFormat = Config.defaultTextFormat;
myTextField.embedFonts = true;
//These two next lines prevent anti aliasing - good for bitmap fonts:
myTextField.antiAliasType = AntiAliasType.ADVANCED;
myTextField.sharpness = 400;
