ActionScript 3.0 :: Including Fonts In Swf Files?
Nov 10, 2009
I am developing flash app to be embedded in the html page, and i have some text in the swf file with certain font.Now,on platforms that does not have those fonts, it will definitely display different fonts than the one I originally intended.I could use the character embedding feature, but there seems to be only two options.One is include all the glyphs which make the file to be monstrous size or
there is an autofill button which will only embedded letters of the font that are in the swf file.Now the problem with the second approach is that,the word will change dynamically making the second option useless. i.e. if word (thus letters) change such that it contains letters whose glyph or whatever is not embedded it is a problem you can see.
Plausible solution for me seems to be include all the letters for desired font, which I could not figure out how to do it or if it is possible to do this at all.Or if it is possible to just copy those fonts into one of my web hosting folders, and dynamically loads them.

I have some files in my src directory, some are .class files (Java class files) and some are .properties files, when I create the Adobe air native installer these files are not included. Why is that? How can I work around that?
Also it excludes .mxml files, but that's good. I'm sure that's related, how to change what it includes or excludes?

I know this is simple - but I want to do a slideshow without XML. I want to include the image files within the .fla but I'm trying to find a way to make it scroll through 3 images included in the file with a fade in/fade out effect. But I don't want to make it so I have to tween the images (alpha) to fade them in and out. & I want it to loop.

I am trying to create an AIR Installer file through CS3 that has my assets folder included. What I need to happen is, when the AIR Installer runs, it needs to create an assets folder along with everything else, in that folder it needs to have subfolders with a few files in them. At the moment, I can only add single files, not handy when I have images, music and xml I want neatly organised. I want to select whole folders to add, idealy just my assets, at the moment I can only add one at a time.

I save my (embedded) fonts in an external file (fonts.swf) that gets loaded at runtime. Pretty standard. I also use a bunch of UI artwork generated in the Flash IDE. Some of this artwork contains static textfields (thus, not proper TextFields that can change. Just frozen glyphs). Here's the problem: if I use the same font in any static textfield and then embed that same font into my collection of runtime fonts, the runtime font will refuse to render. It's the same effect you get if you set a textfield with embeddedFonts=true to use a font that isn't embedded. If I change the static textfields to use a different font, the runtime fonts work just fine.

Edited Short Version:The Adobe Flash docs list a property embedFonts on TextAreas:
A Boolean value that indicates whether the font specified in fontFamily is an embedded font. This style must be set to true if fontFamily refers to an embedded font. Otherwise, the embedded font is not used. If this style is set to true and fontFamily does not refer to an embedded font, no text is displayed. The default value is false. Regarding the "If this style is set to true and fontFamily does not refer to an embedded font, no text is displayed" statement: How can I detect in ActionScript when this scenario happens?
TL;DR Original Version: I have a flash application which loads external .swf files containing embedded fonts, so that these fonts can be used within the main application. We're accomplishing this by using the following ActionScript code on anything which uses custom fonts:

Right I can upload the font to the server.But the only examples I can find - require registerFont(Verdana);Which means I'll need to create a new SWF with the new font embedded and reupload to the server. I need an automated way of doing this or perhaps something different altogether?

I've recently had to format my computer and now having a problem with the flash actionscript window: the actionscript text looks like bold, or in a different font. The problem is that when I search for something like "flash" and "fonts", no matter which other words I use, always comes a lot of things about fonts for flash files, or for flash embedding fonts, but never for the program itself. Wich font is missing in my system that flash CS3 needs?

Ive been trying to include an swf with buttons, that plays .flv videos, into this html page: [URL] (feel free to view source) Im having trouble because i think the swf 'links' to flv files, and neither are in the same directory as the html page - the swf is just not showing up. i dont want to duplicate the swf and its corresponding flash files if theyre already hosted once by this client - does anyone have a solution, or is the problem actually something else? the swf files can be downloaded at: [URL]

I have a few custom classes stored in AS files. Is it possible to have these classes imported another way from using the following method:
Code:
import ClassFile;
I want to have the AS files loaded from a server (policy file created for inter-domain talk) into to flash. Also I want it to work, if a person downloads the main SWF and plays it on their compy,i want the class files to be loaded from [URL] and so on.

I'm struggling with something that is supposed to be so simple! I would like to add an image to an input text box. I have a guestbook where the visitors can leave their comments. Under the message box I have a line of different smilies. The user types in the text and clicks one smiley to insert it into the box. I'm doing it like this:
sm_01.onRelease = function() {
mcData.txtComment.htmlText += "<img src="images/sm_01.jpg">";
}
The smiley appeares but it breaks the line and the subsequent text will be placed before the smiley and not after it as it would be normal. If I'm inserting text on mouse release instead of the image everything seems fine.

GI have a problem where a flash player, when run through firefox, is not including the HTTP cookies. These are included when run through internet explorer.
I want to know if anyone knows how to force flash to include cookies when communicating with a flash server?
We have a flash recorder which connects to a red5 server. These connections are opened through a load balancer which offers a pool address. There are multiple servers in the pool.
The recorder sends data using the RTMPT protocol. This sends the RMTP over HTTP (this allows firewall traversal). To ensure data arrives at the correct server we used cookie based load balancing. If a certain cookie is present the load balancer directs the connection to the correct server.
This cookie is set when the user logs into the site through thier web browser. The flash player then includes these cookies in the RTMTP HTTP requests when communicating with the server. This ensures the RMTPT connection is opened to the correct server.[code]...

In mxml application made in flex if i place a part of actionscript code in separate file and include it in mail application using (fx:Script source) , then do i have to import all the mx and spark components in .as included file even though they are were already imported in main mxml application ? For example if i have mx alert already imported in main mxml file then will i have to import in again in the .as file placed externally although .as file is included in main mxml application ?

I followed an online tutorial and built an AS3 calculator for Flash. Works great, and I even figured out how to modify the code to add a clear button. The one issue is that, the way this is coded, one can only enter positive integers or zero (i.e. 0, 1, 2, 3...) into the boxes (num1 and num2 in the code below). As in code below (lines 15-16), the tutorial suggests a clever code so that users won't be able to enter anything (e.g. letters) except numbers into the num1 and num2 boxes (restrict = "0-9").
The result is that one cannot enter a decimal place, and also that one cannot enter a negative number. How to modify the code below to allow decimal places and negative numbers to be entered in the num1 and num2 boxes? I suspect that another conflict in the code with this plan could be the "parseInt" statements near the bottom. I have posted the swf FYI at [URL].
ActionScript Code:
plus_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, plusClick);
minus_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, minusClick);
times_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, timesClick);
divide_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, divideClick);
equal_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, equClick);
clear_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clearClick);
[Code] .....
