Personnaly I havent tried putting the text in an external .as file, if you can get the chinese characters in there maybe it'll work. On a windows system you can use Arial Unicode MS, on a Mac here is a link where you can see what fonts you'll need : http://www.alanwood.net/unicode/fonts_macosx.html#simplified
You do need to have the Chinese language installed and activated on your system for this to work (Mac and Win). Otherwise you won't see the font. HTH A. -----Original Message----- From: Eric E. Dolecki [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 10 octobre 2006 12:35 To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] Simplified Chinese Is it possible to put the simplified chinese into an external .as file with UTF-8 encoding (say, setting string variables) and using that? And what would a good unicode font for simplified chinese actually be? Hoping that I don't need to change my OS settings to pull any of this off. - e.
