[Flashcoders] Distributing Fonts in a standalone application

2009-07-06 Thread Sumeet Kumar

Hi All,

I am developing a desktop application in AS 2.0, in which user can 
design(add text, change text font or add image on the Tshirt for printing) 
his/her T-Shirts. Also, i have to give certain templates to user, out of 
these templates user can pick any template and design the T-Shirts using the 
selected template. For designing the templates, I am using windows default 
fonts like verdana, arial etc. My questions is, can i distribute these fonts 
by creating swf files(shared library)?


Any help on this would be great.

Regards
Sumeet kumar

I remember Macromedia used to say: Because embedded fonts are available only to the movie, there 
are no legal obstacles to distributing fonts in Director movies or Director modify the font 
slightly so it's no longer the original font type thing.


I'd have thought Adobe's stance is the same, but if you want to play safe you 
can use Adobe fonts :)
