[flexcoders] Fonts and localization

2012-04-11 Thread michael_regert
I’m trying to understand what Adobe Flex is doing for Korean (and other languages) fonts. I’m seeing that the font used for a Spark label is different than what is used in an MX Advanced Data Grid. I’m using Adobe Flex 4.0 and 4.6. I have the following sample app. The font used to display

Thanks. I’m being told by our Korean QA that the default font that is used in the MS Advanced Data Grid is much cleaner than what is used in the Spark controls. How do I change this to use the same font as the grid across my whole app? Michael J. Regert Please consider the environment
