View 4 RepliesIDE :: Arial Font Styles Not Applying
Apr 24, 2009I'm having a strange issue with the Arial font in Flash CS4. I can create a text box and choose the Arial font. That appears to look like regular Arial text. However, if I want to choose a style (italic, bold, bold italic) the text does not change at all. These fonts are loaded on my system and always have been. They work in Flash CS3 and they work in all other programs including Illustrator and Photoshop CS4. In addition to that, all other fonts seem to work just fine including Arial Narrow and the other general system fonts. Arial Narrow allows me to select and apply all the available styles. It seems to be specific to Arial.
This also happens when I open a file that was originally created in CS3 or Flash 8. The font mapping notification does not appear, but if I had a text box that is supposed to be Arial Bold Italic, it automatically changes to look like regular Arial.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Using Arial For Content Font - Set It Up For Solid Edging?
Jun 17, 2006I'm using Arial for my content font. I'm trying to set it up so that there's pretty solid edging.
Code:
var antiAliasEntry_1:Array = new Array({fontSize:12.0, insideCutoff:0.61, outsideCutoff:-3.43});
var arialTable:Array = new Array(antiAliasEntry_1);
TextRenderer.setAdvancedAntialiasingTable("Arial", "none", "light", arialTable);
I think it's that insideCuttOff needs to be smaller, and outsideCutOff needs to be further in the negative direction. But when I do that, there's no much of an effect. Here's what my text looks like now:

View 2 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Japanese Fonts - Embed A Font Like "Arial Unicode MS" With The Kanji Character?
Oct 9, 2010I am tasked with created a site that handles Japanese characters, and am looking for any insight you can offer for this.My main issue right now is the size spike the site will get if I embed a font like "Arial Unicode MS" with the Kanji character set which has 3174 glyphs. When I compiled an fla with only a textfield and these Japanese characters embed it stands at 731k. So I am looking for options to either eliminate the need to embed the Kanji characters or find a way to limit the number of characters needed to handle the Kanji character set.
1. Which fonts if any come pre-installed on Wins & Mac that natively handle Kanji characters.
2. If there is such a font for Win & Mac does this mean I don't need to embed the Kanji glyphs for the font in a swf, and can be sure any user viewing the site will be able to see the Janji characters, because their OS already can handle displaying Janji characters. For example if I go to a webpage on the internet that has Japanese characters I am able to view the Japanese characters, is this because the browsers themselves have these fonts embedded or is it pulling from my OS to display the Japanese font?
3. If I do need to embed a font to handle the Janji characters do I need to include all 3174 glyphs to cover all possible English equivalents. I read that you can specify a unicode range for a font, believe this only works with CS4 though. I don't know much about unicode ranges let allow the ranges I need for Japanese characters.

AS3 :: Flash - Use External Font Swf To Change Font Of A Dynamic Text Field?
Oct 5, 2010I am working on a as3 project in which the user select a font from Combo Box and that font SWF should be loaded Dynamically and then i need to change the font of the Dynamic text field.
I have swf font files downloaded from [URL]
My question is that how can i load the font swf dynamically from server and add them to the library and how can i use that swf to change the font of dynamic text field.
if there are embedded fonts in library the i can access them using this- --
var fontList:Array = Font.enumerateFonts();
for( var i:int=0; i<fontList.length; i++ )
{
trace( "font: " + fontList[ i ].fontName );
}
But How to use dynamically loaded Font swf as a font type.
AS2 :: Text Scroll Box Cannot Embed Font / Need To Link Font From Server?
Nov 4, 2009I bought a text scroller flash file and am now trying to tailor it to my needs.URL...It is composed of several movieclips which link to the an external text file. The external file starts off with this mytext= <font color="#000000" size="7">BACKGROUND</font> This file determines the size and color of the font but does not define the actual font itself, it also contains the content. There is a movieclip within the flash file where you can denote a device font or embed a font from the properties panel.Starting off I simply picked my font from the properties panel and used "anti-alias for animation". This seemed to work fine on the Flash preview and also once published online. However, once I used another computer to view my site the font changed and reverted to a default. This leads me to believe the font is linked to each computers font library. I am wondering if there is a way to override this and to link the font to a place on my server?I also tried to embed my font via the properties panel but it looks warped and unrecognizable, so thats out. Unless there is another way to embed fonts at stays true to the font? To add more fuel to the fire, the font I have to use is not html safe "Gotham" to be exact.URL,,,

ActionScript 2.0 :: Text Format Input Text Bold Without Selecting Text?

Code:
function selectText() {
startSelect = Selection.getBeginIndex();[code].........
I need the ability to click the Bold button and it bolds or unbolds at the cursor so if I hit the bold button what I type from that point on will be bold until I hit the button again and then it goes back to regular. I am able to change it to bold or unbold by selecting the text and clicking the button but I also need to do it without selecting.

View 2 RepliesCreate Scrolling Text Areas With Rich Text Format Content?
May 14, 2009Noob question, I hope. I need to create scrolling text areas with rich text format content. I know I can use the textArea component and set the htmlText property but converting all of my RTF to HTML is gonna be a major pain in the @$$. I keep getting into trouble thinking what's mindlessly easy in Director/Lingo is gonna be reasonably simple in Flash/AS3, I hoping this is just my inexperience with Flash getting in the way. Is there an easier way? I thought of embedding a PDF document but apparently that's not an option in Flash either (note: I know how to link a PDF doc, I need this text to display and scroll within the application, not just pop a new window on top).

Feb 7, 2011I'm trying to embed a font in my project by using url("font.ttf") rather than local("Font Name"), but it doesn't seem to pick it up. The font in question is called "Gotham Bold". When i view the details of the font, the font weight is regular, however when i use local("Gotham Bold") in the css i have to specify fontWeight: bold or else it wont pick it up. But when I use url("folderGotham-Bold.ttf"), and specify fontWeight: bold, it says that font weight is not found for that TTF. If i remove the fontweight, there's no errors, but the font is not applied to the text.

Here is my code:
I bring in the XML data with this AS3 code:

Am I not using the CDATA tag properly? Or do I need to change something in the way I call up the data in the xml node ?
