Turn off anti-alias for font in Emacs 23

Question

How to I disable anti-aliasing for fonts in the Windows version of Emacs 23?

Thanks.

Answer 1

You can specify the antialias=none option for your fonts, as stated in GNU Emacs Manual

Answer 2

As I couldn't find a satisfactory answer to this one for a long time, I thought it wouldn't hurt to add this link to this discussion, as the above does not generally work on Linux:

The problem is that under Linux, emacs doesn't seem to be doing a lot of font handling at all, and you need to disable the antialiasing elsewhere.
