Re: [Flashcoders] as3 ttf encoding lib?
I haven't looked through the code as of yet, so I am not sure if it's what I am looking for, but it does look promising. Thanks for the response.

Re: [Flashcoders] as3 ttf encoding lib?
I remember looking at that - it uses JSFL and does the following: Draws each letter of your font onto the stage in Flash. Breaks the letter apart - so it becomes a shape. Grabs the path of the shape. Turns the shape into commands for drawing the character using the Five3D engine - which uses the flash drawing API to do curves and lines... Nice...

Re: [Flashcoders] as3 ttf encoding lib?
Sounds nice, and, now that I know about it, will be very useful to me in the future; however, I was hoping there was an as3 lib to compile a ttf or other types of font file formats. Even a java library that compiles to ttf or something open type that wouldn't be too crazy to port?

What about looking at fontforge or something like that? http://sourceforge.net/projects/fontforge/files/ Anthony Pace wrote: Sounds nice, and, now that I know about it, will be very useful to me in the future; however, I was hoping there was an as3 lib to compile a ttf or other types of font file formats.

Hi Glen, Looking through the source right now... this actually looks promising.
