to do any kind of rotation / alpha transforms on a textfield, you need to
have the fonts embedded in the textfield
tf.embedFonts = true;
(note the font should be embedded in the swf somehow - the simplest method
is to have a textfield off-stage with all the characters you want embedded
into it)
off the top of my head, i don't think you can rotate dynamic text with web
fonts. i think you need to embed the fonts, otherwise the text does not render.

Hi,
Your text field needs to have embedFonts set to true and you need the
corresponding font characters either embedded in that text field, or
another one

Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] How to rotate dynamic textfield
Hi,
If you put a dummy text field in your FLA with the font embedded,
then in your dynamic ones, set embedFonts to true and set the font to
the one matching your embedded one, that should work.
I will look for the bitmap trick

Hi,
I could not find old bookmark, but the link below shows similar idea:

This is proper embedding.

It seems you embed the font at the wrong place:
var tf:TextField = new TextField();
tf.embedFonts=true;
tf.defaultTextFormat=fmt;
try instead:
var tf:TextField = new TextField();
tf.defaultTextFormat=fmt;
tf.embedFonts=true

You can try adding true for transparent as the BitmapData's 3rd parameter.
var myBitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(tf.width, tf.height,true);
myBitmapData.draw(tf);
var bmp:Bitmap = new

Cor,
I use FlashDevelop with Flash CS3 as compiler and not the flex_sdk_3.
Actually, you are.
Okay, I am using Flash CS4, and was presented with a dialog that said You
have used a feature that requires the Flex SDK: Embed metadata ...
So I just thought I would include the path.
