Why's my font blurred?

Core Library Questions

Hey guys,

I'm using PFont on my computer (Ubuntu 12.10 with Firefox and Chromium) and it worked really well, but I just tested at other OS (Mac and Win) and browsers (Safari and Firefox) and I'm getting a blurry font.

Like this:

I already submitted this sketch at OpenProcessing: http://www.openprocessing.org/sketch/79333

Here is the part of the code that I used PFont:

PFont font;
...
font = loadFont("Arcade-48.vlw");
...
textFont(font,120);
text("START", 80,200);
text("LOVE?", 80,300);

How can I resize the font like a vector, without getting this blurry effect?

Thanks in advanced!
:)

you are loading the font with a resolution of 48 but draw it with size 120... maybe thats why its blurred

Create it with 120 size with tools>create font, and load the big version.
