CS3 : Can't Get Characters To Embed Properly
Sep 7, 2011
I have created a dynamic text box which is used to put the length of a sound clip (which is worked out using AS2).I want to use a font which isn't standard - VAGRounded, so I need to embed the characters.If I select Family : VAGRounded and Style : thin then all is well. Ditto if I pick style:light but if I pick Style:bold or Style:black then the nothing displays
In my windows font folder all 4 appear to exist.I notice that exactly the same appears to happen with the times font too (except some of the family options are different)When I open the font-mapping box it tells me that there aer some fonts that I can't use but there is not list of what they are.How can I please get the characters like bold to embed properly.

I'm trying to update my text area via ActionScript code using this: scoreLabel.text = this.score.toString(); but it's not behaving correctly. When the score is 18, the text area displays just 1, when it's 26 it won't display anything at all... As a test, I tried doing this: scoreLabel.text = "this is a test"; and now the text area is just displaying e: [URL] This isn't a font issue, as I'm using Arial. What is going on here?

I have to embed VAGRounded bold. I can't seem to get it to work reliably. I have created 4 dynamic text boxes, one for each of the 4 styles and embedded the characters into each one for the 4 versions of the font. I then wrote some text directly into the boxes on the stage.
I created a 5th dynamic box and called it "test". I set the family to VAG ROunded, style:bold (ie just like one of the ones above). I then embedded the characters into it.
I added this dead simple as2
Code:
stop();
test.text="hello"
THis 5th text box looks NOTHING like the bold one from above, as you can see in the attached image.

I am trying to embed a font in my actionsrcipt and the characters don't display at all when the embedFont = true. If it is set to false it displays the characters. I really need this to work because I want to maintain consistency with the font used through out the site.
The problem is that its not a common device font. The TextField is set up in another class I created and the the text formating is applied when the for loop runs in the initialization of the class I'm working in. I've tried everything I can think of and it just will not embed the font and display it.

I have the following code:
var tf:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
tf.font = "arial";
aRButton.textField.antiAliasType = "advanced";
aRButton.setStyle("textFormat", tf);
aRButton.setStyle("embedFonts", true);
When i run this i get antialias on my radiobutton but the Swedish characters å, ä and ö disappears. Is there a way to manually embed these characters?

I'm developing an app in Flash AS3 for a target audience in Europe and America. So now I need to embed the characters for the photo caption text field. There are "Basic Latin", "Latin Extended A", "Latin Extended B", "Latin Extended Add'l" and other sets available.
Are there some informations on which characters are really necessary or do I need to embed all sets? (There is an option to pick just some characters of them)

I made a page with a dynamic textfield which gets its text from an xml file.The text is italian, so contains characters as. None of these are recognised if I test my page, instead of these letters I see blank spaces. -I tried with embed, include special characters autofill, but that didn't do anything. -I read an article on this site about embedding international characters which says to put System.useCodePage=true; I did so, but got an error message. Does anybody know how to solve this problem?

I've created dynamic textfield and textformat, I also embedded the fonts but, special characters(like č,ģ,ļ,ķ,ņ) won't show up, how to embed them? In library I have my specific font with linkage name myFont. Here's the code :
[Code]....
From Flash UI I would go to dynamic text properties -> embed fonts and then manually enter desired special characters. But how to do it with code? Seriously I searched a lot and can't find the answer, surely there must be a way how to do it properly with actionscript.

is there a way to embed certain characters instead of embedded the entire font package which would increase my file size tremendously. I tried creating a textbox and type in the characters I need in hopes that would embed those characters but that didn't work.

I have a site with input fields to send message to people. Site will be in 5 different languages. How to embed (or not embed) fonts correctly so every language with its special characters will be displayed correctly?At the moment I don't embed the fonts - letting users system fonts to be used - this way I hope to avoid problems with displaying special characters. It works for some languages but some still don't display special characters

When embedding fonts programmatically, (example here), is it possible to specify certain characters as you might if embedding within the Flash IDE?Here is my code so far, which simply embeds the font. It works, but I am assuming that it is embedding an entire character set.
Code:
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.text.AntiAliasType;

Recently struggling with weird IE9 + Flash problem I came over multiple advices to use classid and codebase attributes specifically for IE. But couldn't find any explanation of why they might be required or what they simply do. Any good writeup on this topic anywhere? Side-question: Can I just make classid value up out of my head or it should be generated according to some rules?

I'm trying to embed a handful of European language characters into a little flash news ticker (Swedish, Norwegian and some others). I'm embedding my swf file in the html and passing a FlashVars variable This is the text that the ticker displays. For some reason the swf doesn't render the character when I put a foreign character such as in the HTML. I have embedded all these fonts in the dynamic text box in my .fla
Attached is the .fla and .html file where you can input the text for the swf to display. Please have a look for me! (attached zip at bottom of post)

1) Each field in the form only allows 3 characters and no special characters such as @ _ ! . , etc... 2) When the user goes to the next field in the form, the previous field appears blank but the when clicking on that again, the original text appears. 3) When submitting the form, it just keeps saying "in progress" and never shows the confirmation text nor does the email get sent. There is an HTML file included with this form but I am not sure if I need to put that in as I have embedded this form into an SWF file so I don't think I need that code but let me know if I am wrong about this. I am posting both the AS code and PHP code below..

We have a flex application which compiles fine on windows box using mxmlc ant task but when we try to run the same build scripts on linux, it throws the 'Invalid Embed directive in stylesheet' error indicating it is not able to resolve the path to the image files.
Can someone pls. educate me on if there is a difference in the way the image files are looked up, in a CSS file, on windows vs linux.
Flex sdk version is 3.3. The same sdk is used on both windows and linux. Not sure if this has been fixed by any future 3.x sdks.

Making a piano/keyboard application and trying to figure out the best way to set this up .I plan on having a directory of sounds for each 'instrument' in my assets folder (piano1/C4.mp3,piano1/D4.mpg,...)Is there a way to import/embed all of these as an array? Also is there a way I can pass a variable to this class to indicate which folder I want to import these from? Something that would be ideal
var type = "piano2"; //passed from class being called by
foreach(notes as note){
[Embed(source = 'assets/sounds/'+type +'/'+note+'.mp3')] private const C3:Class;
public var c3:Sfx = new Sfx(C3);
}
Or would it be a better idea to have a class for each of these "types" that pulls all notes?

I am using the following line before my class declaration .
[Embed(source="C:WINDOWSFontsVERDANA.TTF", fontName="VERDANA", mimeType="application/x-font-truetype", flashType = true)]
But there is no change in the appearance of the Text whatsoever.. I need the text to be crisp and clear.Just like the way it looks when we embed the fonts using the Embed... Button in the Flash IDE.

I've been experimenting with learning game coding and have encountered an issue I'm curious about...
At the moment I have 3 GIFs and 1 sound effect being used, with more to come. Now, is it more recommended to embed these files, which I'm been doing, or is it better to load them externally? To be honest, I really hate the idea of having to load them and would much prefer to embed them directly in to my project. What is the general consensus as to which technique is better?
