[Flashcoders] font embedding
Hi,
I have the following set-up going:
There is a main swf acting as a shell, into which other swfs are
loaded into (with AS like this: 'loadMovieNum("data/audio/audio.swf",
2);'
The swf's that are loaded in contain dynamic text that is loaded in
from an XML file with the .load and .omLoad funcitons which push the
content into various arrays. From there they are then transferred into
the dynamic text fields on button mouse clicks.
The font I want to use is LcdD, but I cannot get this to work at all.
When I embed the font, the text doesn't show, when I select 'don't
embed' the text shows.
I tried embedding in the swf that is loaded in, but am thinking that
it may work if I place the font in the library of the shell swf? How
would that work? I placed a dummy text field in the shell off-stage
using the required font and tried to embed it, which also did not
work.
Is there anything obvious I am doing wrong? Thanks!
Nik C

Re: [Flashcoders] font embedding hell
This should work. On the machine were the fonts are installed. create a new flash file, create a font symbols for your target fonts. Right click on them in your library, and click on Linkage properties and make sure the Export for actionscript and export of runtime sharing are checked fill in the url for the name of the swf file and an identifier for the font. I did this before and called mine fontlib.swf. Export that movie. In your target movie go to File > Import > Open External Library and point to the flash file where the target font symbol was created. Copy the font symbol from that library to your target movie's library. And if you click on the font symbol in your library the check box for Import for runtime sharing should be and the URL should point to the swf files with the font embedding. If haven't tested this using two different platforms, but essentially the font should be embedded in that external swf file so it should be there where ever you take it. If that works, when you choose a font the identifier of that font symbol should show up in the font list with a * star beside it. On May 12, 2006, at 1:58 PM, MBDI ICSC Rodrigo E.

Hi I have a quick question, I have gotten a question about language support. I want the application to support these languages, Hungarian, Estonian, Croatian, Romanian. I know that I have to embed character sets, but my question is how do I know which of them Latin Extended-A or B? Does anyone have a good website that lists what countries that goes in to what set?

[Flashcoders] Font Embedding
Hi All, I m Building a flash editor, which is a part of a website User can add any number of text boxes in the editor and apply any font on the each character of the textbox with bold, italic or underline The problem is that whenever the user will change the font, i will have to load 4 font SWF's (one for simple font, one for bold, one for italic and one for bold italic) ,even in the case of the smaller fonts the size of one fonts come to be around 70KB.And loading 70Kb for a single font does not seem to be a good solution. Can anyone suggest something to optimize this thing? Any suggestion would be great help for me.
