I did not try this with 0.6.3 or 0.7.0 yet. I did a quick test by hand with the Flash 8 IDE to mess around with TextSnapShot class and I first experienced the highlight issue Ajay described. I then read deeper into the specs and found for the highlight to work it needs each font's metrics. This was resloved in the IDE by placing a dynamic text box on stage and embedding 1 character. Yes, I think your EditText is what they call dynamic. It looks like a DEFINEFONT2 tag is what it really is looking for. It also seems the later Flash 6 players support this. My MX (Flash 6 r21) player did not even thought the swf is 6. I've attached a sample that shows the TextSnapShot hilighting. Portions are selected in yellow. If you do not see the yellow highlights try a newer player version. Hopefully decompiling this will put you on track to generating the proper tags needed. Here is a link to MM's help doc for TextSnapShot. http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flash/mx2004/main_7_2/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/h tml/wwhelp.htm?context=Flash_MX_2004&file=00001509.html Chris
