By the lack of feedback do I take it that no one is knowledgeable on this
topic???

Any help would be appreciated or pointers to some information on this. I
can't believe I am the only person on this list that has had to make an
application for Europe!

I have searched myself but with no luck.

Cheers

M

Subject: [Flashcoders] Language expert on embedding fonts for different
language sets

I am implementing a multilingual site for all the European countries and I
am creating separate font libraries for which I will just load the right one
based on the locale. From what I can gather there are four main ones which
is Latin, Armenian, Cyrillic and Greek. The question I am asking is what
font sets do you embed for the particular language set. I am using the Arial
font as that tends to have all the necessary glyphs and have embedded the
characters as shown below. Now this works but I feel I am using a sledge
hammer to crack a nut as I am not sure what languages use which and
therefore I am embedding the latin into the other character sets which I am
assuming is not needed. Any help, advice or pointers to information
regarding this would be fantastic.

The font sets I am embedding are as follows - are these right, wrong or just
plain ridiculous??##!!

Latin language settings

-Uppercase
-Lowercase
-Numerals
-Punctuation
-Basic Latin
-Latin I
-Latin Extended A
-Latin Extended B
-Latin Extended Add'l

Armenian language settings

-Uppercase
-Lowercase
-Numerals
-Punctuation
-Basic Latin
-Latin I
-Latin Extended A
-Latin Extended B
-Latin Extended Add'l
-Armenian

Cyrillic language settings

-Uppercase
-Lowercase
-Numerals
-Punctuation
-Basic Latin
-Latin I
-Latin Extended A
-Latin Extended B
-Latin Extended Add'l
-Cyrillic

Greek language settings

-Uppercase
-Lowercase
-Numerals
-Punctuation
-Basic Latin
-Latin I
-Latin Extended A
-Latin Extended B
-Latin Extended Add'l
-Greek


Thanks in advance :)

Michael
