Yes, add subpixel-hinting to your Photoshop text layers
Thomas Maier: "I saved my workflow as an Action. All of you can download and use it for free. But the trick has a downside, too: You receive three text-layers just for one piece of text. The reason for that is, that I needed to blend the different channels and it’s not even rasterizable."

Designing For The Switch
Mark Boulton for 24ways: "When we embed a typeface, we must look very carefully at the typefaces in the font stack and the relationship between them. Because, previously, the user would not see a switch from one typeface to another, they'd just get either one or the other. Not both. With FOUT, the user sees two typefaces."
