look at the CharactersStrings example (Data), the font was created size 90 and is used with size
90. should not result into smoothed characters.

(v0157)

To do that sketch properly, it should use textMode(SCREEN) so that you
don't get the blurring, and you get better performance out of it using P2D.
I'll leave this as an enhancement request to auto-detect when
textMode(SCREEN) can be used internally.

I've just updated that example for 0158, since the syntax could be improved
based on more recent releases (using map() and such). And in the process
also found a bug with y text alignment being broken with text(char, x, y).
Weee...

Thanks for the report.
This bug is now being tracked here.
