Possible you haven't fonts used in example. Just set your fonts in textfields and set embeded character set. Look at registered array and trace your fonts names. Yup - been there, done that. Set the font in the code and in the text field to Arial even. This seems to be an overly

Although I have had my fair share of headaches with TextFormat, I think I may know what is going on here. There are two methods for assigning a textFormat to a textField. These are setTextFormat() and setNewTextFormat(). The way I understand it setTextFormat() sets the style of the text that is
