I know how to smooth dynamic text, but what I want to do this time around is create a static textbox that DOESN'T anti-alias the text.
Basically, I have a very large amount of text that I want to move around the screen, and the static anti-aliased text makes it run slowly. I can switch them to dynamic textboxes with some preset text (no variable), but they don't get scrollers and the text takes up more lines when rendered live than it does when editing my fla. I don't want to chance it being cut off by different flash players/systems/etc. Any suggestions? Why isn't there an option to do this?

EDIT: Or is using pixel fonts the only way to get around this? If so, anyone have a 12 pt. Arial pixel font?
