I have googled and searched the list archives, and have yet to find a satisafactory answer.
In the simplest terms, how do I add a font to the library for runtime embedding so that a single font name (i.e. "Futura") will embed the font's bold and italic characters as well as the regular ones? When I select the "bold" and "italic" checkboxes in the linkage palette, it makes the font render in bold/italic in every instance, regards less of the relevant HTML tags. I am using Flash 8 pro. I tried this exporting for Flash 8 and Flash 7, no dice. The only method I have found that works reliably is to add a dynamic, embedded text box to the stage for each instance of the font I want to use (I.e. Futura, another for Futura with bold, another for Futura with italic, another for futura with bold&italic). However this won't work for runtime embedding, since importing a swf with embedded fonts will not open those fonts to root level access. I know this is a question that gets asked alot, because I found tons of hits on google without finding a decent answer. - - - - - - - - - - - - Tim Beynart Athens, GA, USA - - - - - - - - - - - - _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list [email protected] http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
