Actionscript 3 :: Embedding Fonts: "Font With Plain Weight And Style Was Not Found At"
Jan 14, 2012
I am trying to embed a font in my Flash Builder 4.6 project, so far unsuccessful. I searched around and found this fix, adding "-managers flash.fonts.AFEFontManager" to the Compiler, doesn't work. I've embedded tons of images to the same project, but I'm not sure what's going on with the embedding of fonts.
[Code]...
Basically, I was completely stupid. I had a "#" and 2x" ` "s in the actual path to my project. I KNEW having those dumb folder names would screw my stuff up some day! And sure enough it did -with Java, but I moved Eclipse out of there a long time ago and forgot about it.

I'm clear on the new CS5 IDE dialogue for embedding fonts, for example, embedding Arial, no problem, BUT, I want to embed Arial Bold (should be easy, right?), so I:
1. From the dynamic textfield's property panel, select Arial for the family, and Bold for the style.
2. Click embed, the dialogue appears, set up with the Arial-Family and Bold-Style as an entry on the list of embedded fonts.
3. I set a range of characters to be embedded with the font.
4. Click OK.
(Note: We're not assigning this font via actionscript to the textfield, the dynamic textfield is an asset on the stage, etc, so I'm assuming then I shouldn't have to export the font for actionscript)But clearly it's NOT OK, the bold font doesn't render, and I just see the regular Arial font... How can I get an embedded font STYLE to render correctly?

how to use some kind of embed fonts feature while using css? or anti-alias the text that is styled using css?i have tried to set:
titlefield.embedFonts = true;
titlefield.stylesheet = sheet;
but it does not work. if i comment out the embedFonts the css works fine but the text is very aliased. and because as3 does not support the embed font property within css i am in a bit of a predicament!

Reason why few of the pixel fonts look more sharp when we use device font than embedding the font.

I am using three fonts of the Helvetica typeface,embedding them with the embed metatag, font files inside project, openType.I noticed that for some reason the bold font looks identical to the roman font.After 4 hours of ____, and testing with five fonts, it turns out that:
if i change the name of all the font files at once, and change the reference to them in the code, all of the fonts work the first time i publish. the second time i publish (without any changes except pressing publish a second time) some fonts overwrite others, randomly, for instance :
roman looks like roman
bold looks like roman,
light looks like roman,
black looks like black,
rounded looks like black.
the only way i can make sure that flash embeds all of the fonts, is to change *all* of their names and publish. additional info:second time i publish the swf filesize is much smaller than first time ( -flash really doesn't embed anything).traces to which fonts are registered show all fonts are there,no errors
using distinct fontnames
publishing cache disabled
restart doesn't help

When embedding assets of any size in the following manner -
[Embed(source="../../assets/Assets.swf", symbol="LargeButton")]
public static const ButtonAsset : Class;
it looks like the resulting SWF size jumps up ~2.8KB (in addition to the size of any assets that are actually embedded).
So I have a few related questions:
Is this because flex_sdk/frameworks/libs/core.swc must be statically linked? Is there any way to get around this restriction, perhaps by cherry picking the necessary files and compiling them to a SWC file?? Note that in the app I am writing file size is critical.
Is there a command/plugin that would allow for the transcompiling of vector graphics (drawn in the Flash Professional Authoring Environment) into raw ActionScript 3 ?
Use cases compelling this feature are improved workflow - would allow designers to draw assets in Flash Professional, compile to an asset SWF, and then be able to embed those assets (versus having to take the time to load them at runtime, or going to the effort myself to write them in ActionScript).

I'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.

With sifr, how do I make a font use the light weight version. I have...
var gillsans = { src: '/resources/swf/gillsans.swf' };
sIFR.activate(gillsans);
sIFR.replace(gillsans, {
[Code]....
which is displaying regular Gill Sans, the light version has been exported with the swf (said so in the export report), but how do I get it to display in sifr?

i would like to modify the font weight of a word (my title) that is into a textfield that is "scrolled" : so when i modify this word, the whole text is being modified as well, and i can't write it in another textfield, because i want it to be scrolled as the rest of the text.Do i "have to" set the title and the text dynamically to change the font? or can i do it directly from the fla (which would save me some time, i have several texts in the same case)

I can change the color of the label in Flex Builder, I can even BIND the color to a variable and that works, but I can't find the Color PROPERTY in order to change or reference it programatically! What is the ActionScript 3.0 code to change the font or color of a piece of text in a Flex RIA - or is caring in what color your text appears too bizzarre a request for a RIA? I wrote whole applications after just minutes of "learning" flex, how come it's taken me three days and I still can't change the color of my stupid label?

I 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?

I need to present chemical formulas with subscripts and superscripts in a dynamic text box. To do this, I've downloaded and embedded the GG Subscript and GG Superscript fonts, created a dynamic text box with Arial as the font, and added ActionScript code to change the font when I need subscripts and superscripts. the following is a simplified version of my code.
[Code].....
I get a compiler error 1119 Access of possibly undefined property html through a reference with static flash.text:TextField. The text box is a dynamic text box, not static, so I'm puzzled.I don't get this error with the GG Subscript code above.

Here is some quick sample code...

I need access to a range of font glyphs for a localized flash application. I am using Myriad Pro which supports character sets such as Greek and others. Is it possible to embed all font glyphs by simply adding the font to the library and checking the option Export for Actionscript?

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?

my fonts displaying in my swf file. I created the flash site using CS4 on a mac. I thought the fonts were embedded but when I tested the swf in safari and firefox the fonts disappeared are all scrunched up in 1/2" on top of each other in several lines. Its a mess. It is displaying in times or some other font when viewed in on a pc browser.
What I did so far that did not work:
Made fonts static with animation
made fonts dynamic with animation

I'm using Actionscript 2 I need help with the scripting. I've selected the dynamic text box and gone to Type> font embedding and created a new font. Then exported it for actionscripting.What script do i have to put in the first frame so that it uses the font?

I have a combo box under a mask and I've done some research and discovered that I need to embed the fonts in to it in order for the text to show. I don't want to embed my own fonts, I just want to use the basic default font and get this working, yet I can't seem to find any tutorials that tell you how to do this, they all seem to be about setting the font colour, size and type.

I found this code for embedding fonts 100% with code - bypassing the CS4 library, but I'm not understanding how I call it.If, for example, I put it in an external as file called globals, do I call the function lie this: globals.Test()?It's the "extends MovieClip" part that's confusing me.[code]

I'm using Flash CS4. I'm trying to load and embed an external font. The main problem I'm having is that I need to import more than just latin 1. I need many special characters imported as well. Because of this, using Flash CS4's create new font from the library is not an option. I'm using Verdana, so I know the font has all the characters I need. So what I need to do is create an external swf that holds the font. Then I need to import and use the font. Unfortunately, I've found way too many ways online that work but don't fit my needs.

There is a new way to embed fonts in CS5. So I've embeded a font in a CS5 flash file's library and gave it a linkage ID. I'd like to embed this font in an ActionScript project using the "[EMBED]" tag. I've tried the following code to embed the "Helvetica LT" font, but the textfield seemed to be unaffected.
[Embed(source="../fla/CS5FlashFile.swf", symbol="HelveticaLinkageID")]

private function someFuntion():void {

Is 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:
package fonts
{
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.text.Font;
[Code].....
which prevents me from using the embedded font in "pure as3" projects. Is there a way to get flex-free fonts using compc?

I'm making a flash application that that let's the user to create a image(like paint).Everything works fine but i have a problem embedding external fonts. Embedding them the classic way(library->New Font->...) is ok, but I want to load my fonts from an external source, so if a user want's to use his own font he would be able to upload his font on my server and the flash to be able to embed the font to the movie(using an xml or php)
