Howto Enable Font Antialiasing in Windows

I have downloaded a font that looks less than desirable if it is not anti-aliased. I can not figure out how to enable anti-aliasing in VS, I have changed the 'Smooth Edges of Screen Fonts' in the system performance options but that does not seem to help.

VS2008 on XP SP3.

What am I missing?

From stackoverflow Andrew Burns

• Which font is it?

  Try using ClearType, not Standard font smoothing. It's in Display properties, Appearance, Effects.

• Could it be a problem with the color combination? Some fonts look really ugly on high contrast combinations with a black background.

  Also, can you see the difference in the fonts in any other application?

  Which font is it?

  From Martin Salias

• It is the Liberation Mono font.

  @Blorgbeard
  That is exactly what I was looking for. I was thinking that the setting in computer performance was the only one. It looks like a charm now.
