Actionscript 3 :: Flash - Embed Font - Text Not Appearing
Mar 28, 2012
I am creating dynamic TextFields in actionscript 3.0. Like many others, my text disappears when I set .embedFonts = true; ArialSlim is embedded and exported for actionscript. I have successfully tested with trace(Font.enumerateFonts()); Interestingly enough, when I comment out the embed line (as shown below), the font works properly. Alternatively, .setTextFormat(); also works properly without the .embedFonts line.

I bought a text scroller flash file and am now trying to tailor it to my needs.URL...It is composed of several movieclips which link to the an external text file. The external file starts off with this mytext= <font color="#000000" size="7">BACKGROUND</font> This file determines the size and color of the font but does not define the actual font itself, it also contains the content. There is a movieclip within the flash file where you can denote a device font or embed a font from the properties panel.Starting off I simply picked my font from the properties panel and used "anti-alias for animation". This seemed to work fine on the Flash preview and also once published online. However, once I used another computer to view my site the font changed and reverted to a default. This leads me to believe the font is linked to each computers font library. I am wondering if there is a way to override this and to link the font to a place on my server?I also tried to embed my font via the properties panel but it looks warped and unrecognizable, so thats out. Unless there is another way to embed fonts at stays true to the font? To add more fuel to the fire, the font I have to use is not html safe "Gotham" to be exact.URL,,,

I am building a web site on flash for my very first time and I have a problem. When I see my project in another computer I can`t see the fonts I used. Flash replace them with others. I gues that's because they are not installed in the system I'm trying to use.How can I embed fonts to a text?

I have a swf A, which contains no font.If I download into it the swf F1, which contains few characters of Arial, then I'll have the arial font embed into A, no problem with that.But if, then, I download the swf F2, which contains other characters of Arial into swf A, will I be able to use all the embed characters font, only the F2, or only the F1 ?I'd like to have a link to somewhere where this is explained, even in very technical terms : I wasn't able to find one.
EDIT : After few tests, it seems that the player replace the loaded font... How can I merge them, then ?

Is it possible to embed a font in Flash and have it displayed as though it was a device font? In other words, can embedded fonts be aliased?Using the bitmap-text option doesn't work, Flash tends to screw up a lot of the character spacing. I haven't found any pixel fonts that mimic Arial, Verdana and Tahoma accurately. Setting the stage quality to low does alias the fonts but they become fragmented.Using device fonts is an option but, as far as I understand, some browsers/operating systems will take it upon themselves to anti-alias the text.

desperate for some assistance in getting two bits of script to combine... Can anyone help please? I want to be able to apply an embedded font to an externally loaded .txt file. I have named the dynamic text field 'myText', but the code that embeds the font wants me to enter the words. Both work individually, but they won't combine:
myLoadVars = new LoadVars();
myLoadVars.onLoad = function() {
// the data is loaded in the myLoadVars object as a property of the object
myText.htmlText = myLoadVars.topHTMLdata;
[Code]...

henever I try to embed fonts for dynamic text fields, no text appears in my text box. The text is loaded into the dynamic field from another variable, long story short it all works, except for if I try to embed fonts. One thing, the dynamic textbox is html enabled, and I have <b> tags within the code, so the text ends up being bold. This is how I want it. Do I have to 'embed' a bold variation of the font as well as the regular variation?

Why's my dynamic text field blank when I embed the font chosen? The text field loads text from an external .txt file with html codes. There's no problem when I mark "No charaters" but when "All" or "Only" is marked the text field is blank? I've tried to remove the html codes from the external file, but it makes no difference!

I'm trying to embed the Chalet font to some dynamic text fields and it is causing the vertical position of the text to jump up above the actual textfield. (see screenshot) Is Chalet a messed up font? (or more likely, Flash is sooo screwed up in handling fonts) This font displays absolutely fine in Photoshop and Illustrator.

I have for example the font Helvetica and than a different style from with for example extended thin or medium or whatever. This is something other's dont have at a computer. Now when I would upload my website with these fonts, others won't see this font eventhough it's an .swf file.
- How do I embed this in my Flash/Action script so they will also see this font?
- adding style to these fonts in actionscript, like letterspacing and other spacings...?
- also with email forms/text boxes...
changing colors for some words in the text and give it an break whenever it needs to etc...My other problem is that whenever I create an actionscript drawn Shape or Sprite. The text which is written with Action Script and also just with normal flash text, it's always UNDERNEATH the action script drawn box...

I have the following project structure: A Flex Project (SDK 3.3) Multiple SWCs with grafics and textfields that are used as components in the Flex project.
Since I have a lot of SWCs that all use the same font in dynamic textfields, I do not want to embed the font in every SWC.Instead I want to have a library (RSL?) with the font from where all the SWCs load the font.
I tried to build a library file with the fonts using the "Export for runtime sharing" feature in Flash.While it works perfectly when I stay in Flash, Flex throws an "internal build error" when I try to use these SWCs in Flex.

I am working on a as3 project in which the user select a font from Combo Box and that font SWF should be loaded Dynamically and then i need to change the font of the Dynamic text field.
I have swf font files downloaded from [URL]
My question is that how can i load the font swf dynamically from server and add them to the library and how can i use that swf to change the font of dynamic text field.
if there are embedded fonts in library the i can access them using this- --
var fontList:Array = Font.enumerateFonts();
for( var i:int=0; i<fontList.length; i++ )
{
trace( "font: " + fontList[ i ].fontName );
}
But How to use dynamically loaded Font swf as a font type.

So I'm working on a very simple animation with some large text areas and have noticed something rather irritating. I'm hoping that someone can tell me why this is happening, and also hopefully a way around it.
When I view the .swf, I'm noticing that text that fits perfectly in the text areas in the .fla is being pushed down passed the edge of the text area. So when the movie exports, something weird happens and the text gets cut off at the bottom. Has anyone else experienced a similar problem, and does anyone know of a way to fix it?
