I misspoke earlier. I suspect that my alias collided w/a locally installed
system font, and that was used instead of the embedded font.
When embedAsCFF=false, none of the text classes use the embedded font.
When embedAsCFF=true, only the s:Label instances refuse to use it.
Does it make sense to poke around using fontSwf?
Here is my styles.css file:
@namespace s "library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark";
@font-face {
src: url("../fonts/Herculanum.ttf");
embedAsCFF: true;
fontFamily: testing;
}
s|Application {
fontFamily: testing;
}
And here is the app that loads it:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<s:Application
xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009";
xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
creationComplete="loadExtStylesheet()">
<s:layout>
<s:VerticalLayout/>
</s:layout>
<fx:Script>
private function loadExtStylesheet():void {
styleManager.loadStyleDeclarations("styles.swf");
}
</fx:Script>
<fx:Declarations>
<fx:String id="valueEng">
<![CDATA[Help.]]>
</fx:String>
</fx:Declarations>
<s:Panel title="Example of text" >
<s:layout>
<s:VerticalLayout />
</s:layout>
<s:Label text="Example of text" fontFamily="testing" />
<s:Label text="Example of text" />
<s:RichText id="myRT1" width="400" text="asdf"/>
<s:RichEditableText width="400" text="asdf"/>
</s:Panel>
</s:Application>
