View 1 RepliesFlash :: Runtime Fonts Not Playing Nice With Fonts Embedded In Static Text?
Jul 11, 2010I 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.

Flash Detect Missing Embedded Fonts And/or Replace With Available Fonts?
Dec 22, 2010Edited 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:

Flash :: AS Window Fonts - Flash Embedding Fonts But Never For The Program Itself
Mar 29, 2009I'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?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Uploading Fonts - Loading Fonts From The Server?

View 2 RepliesFonts Bug In Flash CS4?
Jul 21, 2010I've run into this incredibly annoying problem today. I have numerous dynamic textfields in my movie that embed the font Gill Sans MT. Some of them are normal/regualar, some of them are bold. But, in the published swf all bold text fields are displayed as normal/regular! I've investigated this for hours, and the only way I can get the bold font to display properly is to NOT use the regular one anywhere in the movie.
I also tried making a new flash movie containing two text fields, one that embeds Gill Sans Normal, and one that embeds Gill Sans Bold and that worked fine. So my suspicion now is that my original .fla has somehow gone corrupt so that the bold font data is overwritten with the normal font data. Is this a known issue?

IDE :: Fonts Used In Flash On Mac Looks Different In Windows?
Nov 5, 2009I have made an animation using a lot of text and it looks fine on my Mac, but when I test it on a Windows system it looks awful. I thought that you would get what you see on any platform using Flash, but apparently not.
I have used the font "Plantagenet Cherokee" which I don't think is a standard font in Windows. I have tried to embed the font in the library, but it doesn't seem to work..
Is there any way I can make it work in Windows without starting over?

View 1 RepliesProfessional :: Fonts Not Showing Up In Flash CS5?
Oct 5, 2010As adobe's phone cust. service is rubbish, making me wait for half an hour just to tell me they can't even try to help me with fonts that are not purchased from adobe, I have turned to this message board in the hopes that someone here can help me with my latest in a perpetual series of dillemmmas with this nightmare of a program...
Im using flash cs5 at work on a mac pro with juiced up processors, memory, etc. I installed a bunch of fonts, mostly ttf and otf and when flash loads I'd say about 40% of the fonts that I installed don't show up in the font list. This sucks. Adobe's good programs like photoshop and illustrator show all my fonts, no questions asked. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing the fonts, re-starting flash, and disabling fonts. My one breakthrough was when i created another account on my computer and tried installing a font which was not showing up in the new user's font book. Lo and behold, the font shows up in flash! I have about 900 fonts on my computer which may be alot but I have used previous versions of flash with around that number of fonts and I don't recall any problems. I really dont want to switch my user account as this is a company computer and it will throw off company related access.
Flash :: Pro CS 5.5 Runtime Sharing Bug - Fonts?
Sep 19, 2011I have an issue with an apparent bug in Flash Pro CS5.5. I have recently upgraded to CS5.5 Master Collection from my previous version of 4.0. The bug is when I create a fonts FLA file with fonts embedded in it that I want to use throughout an entire site. I correctly configure those fonts as export for runtime sharing.
In any other FLAs in which I wish to use the shared fonts, I either (a) drag the assets from one library to the other, or (b) add them to the new fla and configure them as import for runtime sharing (both of which achieve the same result).

As3 :: Flash - Embedding Fonts Into A Swf Without Flex?
Jul 30, 2009Is there a way to create embedded "pure as3" swf fonts using compc (without the flex framework integration)? If I embed a font like this in my as3:

{
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.text.Font;

which prevents me from using the embedded font in "pure as3" projects. Is there a way to get flex-free fonts using compc?
Flash - Extract Fonts From PDF Programmatically?
Nov 17, 2009I am developing PDF to e-book converter which will run on a server.I need to programmatically extract embedded fonts from PDF file to finish the project.Now I am able to extract images and text, but to display content in the Flash Player precisely I need the fonts to be extracted from PDF and compiled to SWF to be loaded by Flex application at run time.
I am wondering if it's possible, as such tool as pdf2swf.exe from SWFTools is able to do this. I have decompiled the swf file produced by the tool and there were fonts embedded.The extracted fonts will be used for displaying the same content from PDF file only, just in Flash player. So i think it will not be any rights violation? Moreover, people who will use the converter have all rights for the PDF files content.
So I see next workflow:
1. Call pdf2swf.exe to produce SWF file with fonts embedded;
2. Call some tool (Which one?) to parse previous SWF to SWFs with separate fonts.
3. Load the SWFs with fonts to Flex application at run time to correctly display content.
Actionscript 3 :: Fonts Not Being Embedded Flash CS4?
Jan 17, 2010[URL]It is a Drupal-powered, AMFPHP-connected AS3 web app. The data goes through to Flash with no problems, I have verified that UTF-8 is fine and all. The problem can be better seen in these URLs:
[URL]
A plaintext version of that link:
[URL]
The font is Inconsolata although I could use any monospace open-source font if necessary. You can see that I have embedded the font (I even opted for the dynamic textfields to embed the whole thing, full charset) as well as the "New Font" menu in the library. Inconsolata shows up with an asterisk in the CS4 authoring tool (which according to Adobe documentation means the thing is embedded).
I have tried other font embedding options to no avail. Inconsolata seems to have that "ō" character when used in the authoring but it is not showing up in the dynamic texts.Another problem I am having: if I use static text fields the font doesn't get embedded (WTF). I have to convert the field to dynamic and then it works ("the videogame history timeline" top left is a dynamic text field although I would prefer it not to be... that and others). If I use static text field the font gets converted to some sort of Times New Roman font.
The text is AS3-created (as well as the search results).I am embedding the text via HTML (.htmlText) and styling with CSS.The whole code is open source and can be found here:

An example of how I fill in a text field can be found here:

A snippet of such code is:
var ss:StyleSheet = new StyleSheet();
var css:String = ".title { color:#333333; font-family:Inconsolata; font-size:16; leading:2; } ";
css += ".date { color:" + StringUtils.rgb2web(data.color.r, data.color.g, data.color.b) + "; font-family:Inconsolata; font-size:14; leading:4; } ";

Flash :: Conflict Between Fonts In Swc And External Swf?
Apr 25, 2011I have an actionscript 3 based website that is loading font outlines dyncamically, from external font swfs, using a common technique.
...
var FontLibrary:Class = e.target.applicationDomain.getDefinition("font") as Class;
Font.registerFont(FontLibrary.fontClass);
Everything works fine until I attach assets from an swc containing text with the same font.At which point only the outlines from the swc are used. So for exampe, if the swc has a dyncamic TextField, containing the letters "abc" then only those letters will display in the website and not the entire alphabets that where previously loaded dyncamically from the font swf.
Flash :: Using Embedded Fonts With TLFTextField?
May 23, 2011I'm using Flash CS5. I've got an embedded font loaded from an external SWF. As far as I can tell, it's embedded properly - it used to work before I switched from the classic TextField - but I needed to switch because I need the advanced ligature support. My code is:
//setting up...
var text:TFLTextField = new TLFTextField();
text.width = 530;
text.height = 330;
[Code]....
Edit: Just tried to switch the font to Arial, and it fell back to Times New Roman again. So apparently the problem is not with the embedding, but with the way I assign the font - meaning this may be less complicated than I originally thought. Scratch that, Arial worked after I changed embedFonts to false.
Flash :: Google Fonts API And Actionscript
Jun 15, 2011From what I can tell on the Google Fonts API, these fonts are meant to be accessible by JavaScript/CSS. Is there any way to dynamically load them for a Flash application without having to download them locally to the server?Update: So I've been piddling around with this some more, and the following are just some thoughts I had about how to go about it. None of them work, but I feel like they're on the right track. Just for future reference...When you choose a font to use in the Google API, you're provided with a link to a CSS stylesheet that's generated based on your preferences:[code]
I initially tried using just the href URL inside my <fx:Style source=.../>, but ActionScript rejected this (not sure if it was because it wasn't local, or it realized it didn't end in .css).After that failed, I copied the link into my browser and manually retrieved the CSS, pasting it inside <fx:Style> tags like you would with any other CSS. Again, ActionScript didn't like this because it couldn't locally locate the URL.I suspect some of these precautions are in place due to the whole 'security sandbox' bit that Flash enforces.
