ActionScript 3.0 :: Embedded Font Into A Class
Aug 12, 2009If you import fonts as symbols into the Library in Flash's IDE, are those font symbols available only to the document class, or can they be used by other classes? Do those other classes need to be passed a reference to it? Question Two: This seems to be standard way to embed fonts into a class:
[Code]...
Often embeding fonts using the above method doesn't work. I've done lots and lots (and lots!!) of testing and the transcoder is very picky about which fonts it finds acceptable. It really likes .otf fonts but often not .ttf I found out that there are 3 different font managers used to transcode fonts, and although the correct one is supposed to be selected automatically, this doesn't always happen.
[URL] The solution to this in Flex is to add this additional compiler argument: -managers=flash.fonts.AFEFontManager My question is, does anyone out there know how to force the AFEF font manager in the Flash IDE?
Actionscript 3 :: Possible To Use A Non-embedded Fallback Font When Using An Embedded Font With TextField?
Sep 10, 2010I have an embedded font in my AIR/AS3 app that lacks support for most internationalcharacters. Using TextField and StyleSheet with the font-family property, I assumed I would simply need to do this:font-family: Interstate-Regular, _sans;This works if TextField.embedFonts = false; but then Interstate-Regular isn't embedded for users that don't have it on their system. With TextField.embedFonts = true; the text doesn't even show up. Is there a way to embed Interstate-Regular and still use _sans as a fallback system font without embedding it as well?

Flex :: Embedded Font In Alert Font-family Property Doesn't Working In 4
Jan 21, 2011I'm using Flex 4. I'm trying to apply a embedded font in all Alert components of the application, to get the same style that all the app, of course. I code in my CSS file:
[Code]...
The font-family worked to all componentes, but not to the Alert component. In alert the text message and title got unvisible. If I change to other font-family it works correctly, just the embedded font doesn't work on Alert component. Anyone got this problem? Obs: The embedded font worked in all the app, just the Alert no.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Embedded Fonts - Automatically Registers The Font Using The Font.registerFont Method
Nov 13, 2009I have generated an swf file that contains my embedded font of specified Unicode range, then I am loading this swf into my application. The code in the generated file for the font, automatically registers the font using the Font.registerFont method. I then load this swf file into my application, I never add it to the display list, I just created an instance of the file so that the code is executed to register the font.
Then I use the font name when I create embedded text fields and there you go it works... well it used to, I am not having any luck at the moment though. Sometimes it displays fine, other times it all appears cut off and I see a few pixels of the text I am trying to display.... Anyone else had a similar issue? Know what it might be? I have created a class below that I am using for the embedded font text, any issues people see with this?

IDE :: CS5 Embedded Font And External SWF?

View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Using Embedded Font In Loaded Swf?
Dec 7, 2009I have a .Swf, which has 3 fonts embedded in it, they are all exported in frame 1 for AS. This swf loads any number of external .swfs which have dynamically generated textfields inside of them. This text must be embedded text because effects may be applied to them. I do not want to embed the three fonts into every external swf, and do not think I should have to. The font exists in the Loading swf and I have registered the fonts to the global font list. If I print this list from the loaded swf, all three fonts are present, but when I try to use any of them, my textfiels are empty.
how do I utilize a font which is embedded in a swf, from a swf which has been loaded into that swf?
From my external swf, this code:
PHP Code:
var embeddedFonts:Array = Font.enumerateFonts(false);embeddedFonts.sortOn("fontName", Array.CASEINSENSITIVE);trace(embeddedFonts);
[Code]....
which is exactly what I would expect. Yet, my text box is still blank. I have embedText = true on the text box, and have applied a string to the "text" property, so it's nothing silly liek that.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Embedded Font Not Showing Up?
Mar 13, 2009I have an English based flash set that I'm localizing in Japanese. The client has written to embed the fonts in a font.swf. So I figured I can just add 'New Font' for Japanese fonts, add the class ID to the script file:
var font:LoadFont = new
LoadFont('fonts.swf',['ArialRegular','ArialMedium',
'MSUIGothicReg', 'MSUIGothicBold']);
then export the fonts,swf, and launch the main.swf, JPN fonts should show up correctly. But instead, I get blanks for Japanese characters. Does anyone know what I missed? I've tried other methods: 1) add a layer in main file, 'Character Embedding' in Properties; 2) 'Character Embedding' each text boxes in main; none has worked.

ActionScript 2.0 :: HtmlText With An Embedded Font?
Jan 8, 2007I have an html text field that I want to use as an ongoing chat field (dynamic) and since flash has alignment issues with images inside text, I thought I'd embed a nice picturesque font and then just code them apart
e.g <p><font face='_sans' size='12'>Hello </font><font size='21'> there</font></p>
The embedded font is the default font for the textbox, so only the non graphical text needs to have a font face. So in that example "Hello" would be in text and "there" would be the graphical font.
Problem is, after much trouble even getting the font to embed and appear, that the sans text never appears.Also, Iam constranied in that I have to publish as flash 6.

[Code]....
Problem is, this function only works in half the fields I pass to it, randomly. When it "fails", the field seems empty (even when it's not) and if it's an input one it's not possible to even place the text cursor in it.
No error, no warning and the fields are exact copies of the other with different instance names.
In the example above "txtPassword" worked but not "txtUser".
IDE :: Which Textbox Hasn't Its Font Embedded
May 8, 2010I have a request concerning font embedding,i'm running flash Cs5 and loving the new embed system but i actually forgot to embed some fonts on a textbox and now, at compile-time the output throws :"Fonts should be embedded for any text that may be edited at runtime, other than text with the "Use Device Fonts" setting. Use the Text > Font Embedding command to embed fonts."I mean that's great, but i'd like to know which textbox actually hasn't got its font embedded so i can fix that (stupid flash )I have a lot of textboxes in this project so it will be long before i have re-embedded everything.

Dec 12, 2009I Was playing around with fonts for hours. Trying to rotate textField, but as we know text disappears when fonts are not embedded. I want to let users to be able all the fonts they have on their system, but embedding massive amount of fonts is not a smart idea, because the application get bigger and slower while publish/loading just because user need to rotate selected font. Embedding one or two fonts isn't bad, but this limits users not be able to use the font their liking.
I was wondering maybe embedding selected font on fly isn't all that bad idea, but is it possible to load fonts from user's local folders according to their OS and embed them on fly? won't the application become huge and slow?

View 1 RepliesWill Embedded Font Set Impact Load Time
May 26, 2009Example: a vendor returned a Chinese version of an SWF demo with a file size of 14,692kb. Some clients report load times up to 4 or 5 minutes and some time out.
The vendor claims they have embedded only the characters needed for the copy in the demo, however when we ran the SWF files through a decompiler we found embedded Chinese character sets with up to 21,000 glyphs (the entire Chinese alphabet, + characters in other alphabets like Arabic).
My question, would a 14.5 MB SWF file, with 2 sets of embedded Chinese fonts, each with glyph counts of 21,000+ (for a total glyph count of over 43,000), take several minutes to load from the web?

ActionScript 1/2 :: Embedded Font Styles Procedure?
Aug 1, 2009I've imported two styles of the Trebuchet MS font into the library. One without selecting the 'bold' checkbox in the Library Panel upon importing and the second with the 'bold' checkbox selected. If I look in the font list of the property panel I now see the two embedded fonts (with asterisks behind their names): Trebuchet MS Regular* Trebuchet MS Bold* The first textfield uses Trebuchet MS Regular* and off course shows the text in plain style The second uses Trebuchet MS Bold* and I would expect the text to turn immediately bold, but it is still in regular style when I select Trebuchet MS Bold*. In both cases (Trebuchet MS Regular* and Trebuchet MS Bold*) I would have to select 'B' in the properties panel to make the text bold. Which in the second case seems a bit too much to me.
Why still have to click 'B' when I already have Trebuchet MS Bold* selected? Too make it more weird: I could also import Trebuchet MS with Italic selected, choose Trebuchet MS Italic* (which would make the text 'regular' at first) and click 'B' to also make the text bold. Can someone explain why Flash works this way with imported fonts? (I know I should/could use TextFormat, but I'm curious about this other approach and why Flash works this unlogical way with embedded fonts)

View 5 RepliesCss :: Adobe Flex An Embedded Version Of A Font?
Apr 27, 2010Scenario: Flex application utilizing an @font-face declaration for embedding the font. (Embedded fonts are required to be able to rotate text.)
The application was originally developed as an English application, but during localization it became necessary to locate a unicode font capable of displaying Asian characters. The original implementation of the application uses four fonts to satisfy the various permutations of character emphasis. Bold, Bold Italic, Italic and Normal are all supplied through the corresponding Arial fonts in the Arial family.
Problem: When trying to compile in the font as one that could be used for the bold, italic, and bold italic through something like (yes its not ideal, this was just a test to see if it could be done):

It isn't so much the how to solve this issue. There are plenty of viable solutions. However what I would really like to know is how does Flex apply bold and italics to a font that it says does not support bold or italics.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Trimming The Charset Of An Embedded Font
Feb 5, 2009I have been embedding some non-standard Fonts into my Flash application using the "New Font ..." action from the Library pane. I exported the Font for AS, and there are no problems using the font.
However, from the reports, I noticed that the entire charset of the font is embedded by default. Since I only need the the alpha-numeric characters plus a couple of symbols, I was wondering if there is a way for me to trim the embedded charset (either from the Flash UI or via AS)? I remember in archaic versions of Flash, you can specify exactly which characters to embed in the SWF. Is this feature still available somewhere?
I wanted to keep the SWF lean and mean, and I don't want to load the font in run-time (some browsers disable font loading by default).

ActionScript 2.0 :: Global Embedded Font For All TextFields
Mar 20, 2006I have this very very large project I've been working on. I've just realized the font I've been using isn't standard on PCs. So now I have to embed the font for all the text fields in the whole project (they all use the same font), most of which are dynamic. I've added the font to the library, but I don't want to go through the hassle of telling every text area to embed that font due to the vast number of text areas and the project's complexity. Is there an easier method of setting all of the text in the movie to use the embedded font, or am I just going to have to bite the bullet? Can I use CSS to do it, or something easier?
