tried turning auto-kern off? Unchecking 'auto-kern' did fix it for me! Many thanks. I noticed my other fields did not have it checked, so not sure why this one did!

Re: [Flashcoders] embedded font not displaying
I have been having font issues with Flash for the longest time. First, I want to say hello to you all, I am brand new here and really impressed by the level of programming. I came from actionscript.org where I almost always help people out but I dont think that is going to be the case for me here for some time. Anyway, I was working on this international site that had to display different languages depending upon an HTML querystring. The copy is pulled from XML. So what I needed to do was to use actionscript to embed the font but when I did that I could not format it as HTML. Does anyone have the solution...it could be myText.htmlText = 'foo' but I am not sure.

Re: [Flashcoders] embedded font not displaying
also, depending on the what sytles you apply to your html (IE: bi), you'll have to embed that part of the font as well. to do this, 1. create a dynamic textfield on stage and select the font you want to use 2. Click the render text as HTML button in the property inspector 3. Double click to enter text 4. type: r b i bi 5. select the b, click the bold button. Select the i, click the italic button, select bi and click the bold then italic button. 6. what you should have is something that looks like this: r b i bi 7. Click the embed... button - select Uppercase, Lowercase, Numerals, Punctuation - click ok to close put this textbox off stage somewhere and hide it. It's only job is to include the normal, italic, bold and bold/italic font outlines. Create another dynamic text box that will recieve your HTML formatted data and you should be good. hth vic!

Re: [Flashcoders] embedded font not displaying
Yes, that's right, that'll make it big ;) I've just given you a recipe to get the fonts embedded for dynamic HTML work. *how* you implement from there is another matter. But no matter what you do, Chinese character sets can add alot. I did a conversion of a site to Chinese about 3 months ago, and someone on translation team embedded all on a single dynamic textbox which caused the resulting swf to be 15mb ;) On 9/25/06, vic [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: But if ido this wont i have to embed fonts for all fonts (Chineese, arabic, english, etc.)?

Re: [Flashcoders] embedded font not displaying
also, finding that textfield was a complete nightmare until I got a hold of gSearch ;) I was able to bring up all dynamic textfields, click to each of them through the list and find it within a couple of minutes ;) I had meant to include this in the last post, just didn't know if I had permission to say anything ;) gSearch is in limited beta right now and they're (Gskinner and the gang) trying to get it out. I've used it on serveral occasions with very large projects like the one mentioned and it was an absolute God send.
