[flexcoders] Re: embeding fonts of a style (Interstate RegularCondensed)

[artur_desig2dev]

we are having the same issue but with applying styles to Interstate
Light:
but we're trying to get this to work in AS3 ..and not FLEX..

first we tried doing it this way..

[Embed(source="../fonts/Interstate-Light.ttf",
fontName="Interstate-Light", mimeType="application/x-font-truetype")]
public static const InterstateTTF:String;

[Embed(source="../fonts/Interstate-Bold.ttf", fontWeight="bold",
fontName="Interstate-Bold", mimeType="application/x-font-truetype")]
public static const InterstateBoldTTF:String;

[Embed(source="../fonts/Interstate-Italic.ttf", fontStyle="italic",
fontName="Interstate-Italic", mimeType="application/x-font-truetype")]
public static const InterstateItalicTTF:String;


var defaultStyle:Object = new Object();
defaultStyle.fontFamily = "Interstate";

var style:StyleSheet = new StyleSheet();
style.setStyle(".defaultStyle", defaultStyle);

var t:TextField = new TextField();
t.embedFonts = true;
t.styleSheet = style;
t.htmlText = "<span class='defaultStyle'>My <b>bold</b> text</span>";


then we also tried it using CSS and embedding the font in a swf:


package
{
     import flash.display.*;
     import flash.events.*;
     import flash.net.*;
     import flash.text.*;

     [SWF(width='955', height='600', backgroundColor='#FFFFFF',
framerate='24')]

     public class Index extends Sprite
     {
         [Embed(
                     source="font.swf",
                     symbol="InterstateLight"
                 )]
         private var Interstate:Class;

         public function Index()
         {

             Font.registerFont(Interstate-Light);

             var style:StyleSheet = new StyleSheet();

               var normal:Object = new Object();
             normal.color = "#FF4900";
             normal.fontFamily = "Interstate-Light";
             normal.fontLeading = 2;
             normal.fontSize = 11;

             var bold:Object = new Object();
             bold.color = "#FF4900";
             bold.fontFamily = "Interstate-Bold";
             bold.fontLeading = 2;
             bold.fontSize = 11;
             bold.fontWeight = "bold";

             var italic:Object = new Object();
             italic.color = "#FF4900";
             italic.fontFamily = "Interstate-Italic";
             italic.fontLeading = 2;
             italic.fontSize = 11;
             italic.fontStyle = "italic";

             style.setStyle(".normal", normal);
             style.setStyle(".italic", italic);
             style.setStyle(".bold", bold);

             var label:TextField = new TextField();
             label.antiAliasType = AntiAliasType.ADVANCED;
             label.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;
             //label.embedFonts = true;
             label.multiline = true;
             label.styleSheet = style;
             label.htmlText = "<span class='italic'>HOLA HOLA HOLA HOLA
HOLA<br>HOLASSSS DDDD DDD<br><font
color='#000000'>HOLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA</font></span>";
             addChild(label);

             var tf:TextFormat = new TextFormat("Interstate-Light", 11)
             var label1:TextField = new TextField();
             label1.defaultTextFormat = tf;
             label1.antiAliasType = AntiAliasType.ADVANCED;
             label1.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;
             label1.embedFonts = true;
             label1.multiline = true;
             label1.htmlText = "HOLA HOLA HOLA HOLA HOLA";
                label1.y = 100;
             addChild(label1);
         }
     }
}


any ideas?!
