Is it posible to get a reference to char as DisplayObject to apply filters like when applying to a DisplayObject?

Yes. You need for the character to be the only thing in the line, and it will appear by itself in the TextLine (which is a DisplayObject). There a couple of ways to do this. If you are using FTE directly, then set the breakOpportunity in the ElementFormat to ALL, and each character will come out in a separate TextLine. If you are using TLF, then you need to put <br/> between the characters, or put each character in its own paragraph.

Hope this helps,
