Hi,
I am working on some runtime font embedding with Flash CS3 by
loading in a SWF at runtime with font symbols defined in library,
exported for Actionscript, but not for sharing.
I wish to use Arabic and Chinese characters in my fonts, so I have
symbols for Arial and MingLiU Bold fonts.
The problem I am having is that the Arabic / Chinese characters do
not seem to be included in the Font Symbol / SWF. I have tried putting
a text field on stage and embedding the character ranges for each
symbol, but still no luck.
In my "Loader", I am loading the fonts, then some XML and using
Font.hasGlyphs(string) to see if my Chinese / Arabic / other characters
can be rendered with any of my loaded fonts, then defaulting to system
fonts if they are not.
I can get that far, but I would really like to embed / anti-alias
the fonts better, etc.
So, is it possible to ensure that the CS3 IDE embeds a range of
characters, or would I have to do the fonts using Flex / Flash Develop
and [Embed] with unicode ranges to create my font swfs?
Thanks in advance.
Glen
