Problem with fonts

I tried font editor. I make a 16x16 cells table of 32x32 px (512x512 at the whole). Then, in a worksheet, paste the characters, previously copied, in the cells, and do the corrections I think possible.
But, with won.fnt, and could be more fonts, when testing them, they really show the chars, but surrounded a little by the background color.
I mean, for example, won.fnt has about white color for foreground and red color for background. It show any char white surrounded by, I don?t know, two or three pixels in red, in both sides.
Coul any help me?
Thanks.

Please post a screenshot! :)

Could be that you exported fonts with antialiased edges.

screenshot 2

This font is based on won.fnt. As seen in the screenshot, the foreground color is about white and backcolor red. But background color I shouldn't see it. What's wrong?.
Thanks.

Why the pixels are so blurred, did you zoomed in?

Looks like that you exported fonts with antialiased edges.
KaM does not support antialiasing nor semi-transparency. So edge pixels got blended with red background and were shown ingame.

No, the image isn't zoomed in the font. Is zoomed only here for best viewing.
The real size of the image is this:

Just like I've said:

Don't use antialiasing when making letters and all will be fine

Well, I really don't export font. I have to copy it from excel and, when paste in paint .net, the program automatically antialias the contents pasted.
Do you know any program to avoid this?. An editor that I can use to paste the excel image without antialiasing.
Thanks.

Hmm... you can type letters in Photospoh and choose non-antialiased font quality :)

I guess other similar image editing products have similar options.
