Embed Accented Latin Fonts (like French) Into A Dynamic Text Field In Flash CS5 Called From A .txt File?

Jun 29, 2011

I've been using Flash for a few years now and I've recently (5 months+) started using CS5 package.My query is how do I successfully embed accented latin characters into a "classic" dynamic text field in my compiled Flash movie that are called from an external text file. I've searched the various forums online and all the methods demonstrated have not worked.

What I've done so far is to to select my dynamic text field, click on "Embed" within the PROPERTIES area, choose the font and the weight, then add any of the foreign characters and/or glyphs to the "Also include these characters:" area then finish up and compile. When I run my SWF file, the glyphs and accented fonts are missing but all the other typical Latin characters show up.

I tried this same method in CS4 (because we have an old Mac in the office too), and almost the same thing happened except instead of completely missing out the glyphs and fonts, it showed a box (almost like an image placeholder) instead.

Embed Fonts Of All Dynamic Text Objects In A Flash File?

Jun 3, 2009

I have created a Flash file which will act as our company's standard presentation / portfolio of all previous projects.  I've pretty much got it running the way I want, but I've just tried it on a few different computers and realised that the fonts aren't embedded.  I've used our corporate font so it needs to look right.  Having read the following documentation [URL] I now understand how to embed fonts for one dynamic text object at a time.  However, I have a lot of different dynamic text objects in the file and I would dearly love to embed them all in one step!  The same embedding options can be applied to just about all objects, as they're all the same size and font.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamic Text Mask - Latin And Non-Latin?

Feb 4, 2009

Text is imported dynamically (xml) and populates to a movie clip which in turns masks other display objects on stage - Great. However, the text populating the field can be korean, and other times, english. I know from testing, latin languages will give the desired effect, but non-latin do not stand a chance. i have tried using _sans and _serif as well, without luck. Embeding Korean/Chinese/Japanese fonts is not an option, since these fonts are HUGE. What's the trick to making a dynamic text field mask?

ActionScript 3.0 :: Embed Fonts For Every Text Field?

Mar 11, 2009

In AS3 I have a couple of dynamic text fields for displaying scores in a game.

If I embed numerals in one of the text fields, will the other be able to use the numerals and display correctly? Should I embed them separately for each text field? In every key frame?

Is there a way to test this myself easily? Obviously my system has all my fonts so I can't tell if they're absent from the .swf.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Pass Text From Form Text Field To A Flash Dynamic Text Field?

Feb 3, 2007

Currently I'm using javascript which works fine to pass text from textfield A to textfield B:

Code:
window.onload=function()
{
document.forms.form1.shirtText.value=document.forms.form1.KitGroupID_16_TextOption_38.value
}

Is there a way to pass the textfield A text to a dynamic text input (flash) as I'd like to use the font embedding flash offers. I can make it work when loading a value from a txt file but I'm not sure how to access the value identified above as KitGroupID_16_TextOption_38 and make it appear in a dynamic input box. Eventually I might want to have 3 font choices for the user but I'd like to just see if I can get this working properly first.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Display Bold Text In A Dynamic Text Field Fed By An Xml File?

Nov 2, 2011

I have a dynamic textfield being populated with an xml files' content. I then have a css stylesheet loaded into format the text. This all works great, but what doesn't work is the ability to bold some of the words in that text. I have both the regular and bold versions of the font embedded into the swf, I can test out just a bold block of text and it works fine. The css is also working as it will change the size of the text that I tell it to. Everything is working, but for some reason I am not able to get the bolder version of the font to display in the same text box as the regular one. I have also tried to change fonts but had the same outcome.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Url For Txt File In Dynamic Text Field?

Jun 3, 2011

dynamic text field, which displays a txt file.

If I hardcode the file name in the code, then it works fine. This is on the first frame of my movie, which holds the dynamic text field.

Code:
myData = new LoadVars();
myData.onLoad = function(success)
{

[Code]....

Is there a trick to defining url's for dynamic text fields? Because if I hardcode the path from the server, it works locally, but again not on the server...

Could it be a problem of permisson (since the url of the txt is from a different page than the one the swf is on)?
