As docx is really a XML format, is it an option to load your data as XML and using <![CDATA[your special characters or the whole text]]>.
HTH Cor -----Original Message----- From: flashcoders-boun...@chattyfig.figleaf.com [mailto:flashcoders-boun...@chattyfig.figleaf.com] On Behalf Of Paul Freedman Sent: zaterdag 29 augustus 2009 23:24 To: Flash Coders List Subject: [Flashcoders] Can I display slanted quotes in a textField? I've never dealt too carefully with the appearance of text. As a developer, that was always the designer's problem. Fortunately, I've always worked with designers who accommodated my - and Flash's - limitations, and let me import .txt files and re-create their formatting as best I could using TextFormat objects. Now, I'm importing poems from Word .docx files. The poet has used slanted quotes and apostrophes. He's mighty picky about the appearance of his work. I'll point out that I'm already passing the txt through a routine that strips the carriage-returns, leaving only the linefeeds, so that I get proper line distribution. I can substitute normal ascii vertical quotes, etc, but he likes the way it looks as he did it. Short of making jpgs of his pages (and there are 1000 of them), can I display them as he wishes? Any help will be gratefully appreciated.
