I am the first to admit it is not a professional solution, which would be to enable selective antialiasing, but it is something.

(of course, the 96 dpi text looks crappy--the 'CLEAR' is an attempt to show what 300 dpi would look like, and show that the edges are pixelated and not aliased.)
Yeah, exactly looks terrible. In what scenario would you find this type of aliased text useful for anything? Its non professional at best but completeley useless i.m.o.
