01. Thanks for looking at the site and the documentation. 02. As I recall, you were mostly interested in 3D characters that might be used more or less as small labels or a ledger for a game. Those individual glyphs, as you saw, can be pretty visually interesting.
03. But you, and others on all three forums, also needed a little more help in the general matter of typography, so now the API makes it very easy to get fixed or proportional alignment of words and phrases. When that happens, people generally are less interested in the visual imagery, and more interested in providing facts, so both use cases are obviously important. 04. So, as to the mechanics of distribution, if you make it all the way to the Appendix on page 24, there is some more information concerning how to get a hold of the code. Since it is not simply some Actionscript files to be added to a library path, it does not lend itself to being put in any of the directory structures provided with the google.source site. If you want the package, send me an email at the address shown and I will get it to you. [Just to let you know, I normally end up spending anywhere from 10-20 hours -- email and Skype -- helping folks get the workbench installed, locating interesting font sources and successfully using the API in their own particular development environment. Sometimes that's more fun than development and documentation!] On Jul 13, 6:59 pm, MadMax <[email protected]> wrote: > The demo looks very good, nice work. > > I'm not sure I am ready to target flash player 10 and beyond required > by this, (should I be revising this outlook)? > > Also I think it needs some words in the file (near the top) about > where to get hold of the files should people want to try it. > > All I see in the PDF in my brief look so far is : > > "Distribution > The entire Bunko package is made available as a zip file.
