Hello All,
I've run into a confusing issue:
I've created several font SWFs that contain only the characters that
I need for a particular language and I was loading them in using a
FontLoader class that I pass a "language" parameter to. After the
FontLoader class loads the proper font (Event.COMPLETE), It calls a
method that had Font.registerFont in it, to add it to the list of
available fonts.
This was working perfectly until the client threw a wrench into the
gears. I now have to have the font files on a different server
because the CMS that they're using only allows them to upload a
single SWF into the page (no assets are allowed). I added the proper
Security.allowDomain stuff and I know the fonts are loading because
they trace out, but now when I try to register the font, I get this
error:
ArgumentError: Error #1508: The value specified for argument font is
invalid.
at flash.text::Font$/registerFont()
at com.johnsoncontrols.bsrbanner.utils::FontLoader/registerFont()
Here's my registerFont method that used to work:
private function registerFont(e:Event):void
{
var FontLibrary:Class = e.target.applicationDomain.getDefinition
("ArialUnicode_" + _language);
Font.registerFont(FontLibrary["ArialUnicode_" +
_language]);
_loadedFont = FontLibrary["ArialUnicode_" + _language];
trace("FONTS: " + Font.enumerateFonts());
}
...And here's the document class of the font SWF I'm loading in:
package
{
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.system.Security;
import flash.text.Font;
public class ArialUnicode_ENG extends Sprite
{
[Embed(source='/Users/mike/MCDILL FONTS/A/Arial Unicode/Arial
Unicode.ttf', fontName='ArialUnicode_ENG', unicodeRange='U+0041-U
+0041,U+0042-U+0042,...')]
public static var ArialUnicode_ENG:Class;
public function ArialUnicode_ENG()
{
Security.allowDomain("*");
}
}
}
Anybody know what the problem might be?
Thanks for any help in advance,
_mike
