Ricky, Thanks...
What is extremely odd is that I created a font symbol using a font that supports the characters I need: MS Mincho. It increased my movie only by 13KB, BUT embed fonts = true still doesn't work! I really don't get it. It's as if Flash is only importing the lower characters of the font and ignoring the upper ones by default when creating a font symbol. When you manually create a textfield in Flash, you can stipulate the range of characters to be used, but I don't seem to be able to control this when I create a font symbol and I'm creating all my textfields dynamically in AS2. Someone - anyone have a solution? Perhaps using device fonts is the best solution, but I was erring in the direction of being able to ensure proper rendering and embedding fonts gives me that.

Double byte characters can take up alot of space (> 2MB) in applications if you want to include fonts. Stick to system fonts if possible. -Ricky _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list [email protected] http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list [email protected] http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
