Subject: [flexcoders] Re: downloading fonts dynamically


Roger, thanks for the suggestions.  Yes, I had found and been playing 
with the embedded font list used by by the Flex UI controls; and I've 
also been using the lower level TextField API's directly. So far, I've 
had no luck at all in getting dynamically loaded fonts to be 
recognized.

You said:

This is certainly consistent with everything I've found 
experiementally with Flex 1.5.   And in Flex 2.0 alpha I'm stopped by 
the following error when trying to load a child SWF, if it has an 
embedded font in it:

TypeError: Error #1009: null has no properties.
      at mx.managers::SystemManager/set fontList()
      at _LoadChild_FlexInit$/init()
      at mx.managers::SystemManager/SystemManager$71
$private::handleFrameEnd()

I'm assuming this is a bug that will eventually be fixed, but what 
will the final behavior be?  Will the same issue I'm seeing in Flex 
1.5 -- fonts in child application domains are not accessible to the 
application --remain in Flex 2.0?  And if so, is there any work-around?
