Alright I have this file that is passed different localized XML files for a sites different foreign languages.

The text field is TLF (because it supports characters that are embedded), and when I view the file in flash or the flash IDE everything looks great. BUT when I view the project embedded in a webpage (or if I open the swf in firefox) the characters for korean, japanese, and russian do not appear. Like they’re non existent.

Anyone know of a work around? or a fix? The other weird thing is there’s one other textfield that does display the characters. It’s already on the stage though and not loaded dynamically like the other one.

Help!

I don’t konw TLF text
Try create TLF textfield in flash IDE and embed Korean or japan characters selectively
instead of create textfield and embed characters dynamically

especially japan characters ,if you embed the whole characters , the swf size maybe be 2M even 10M :crying:

Ok so I figured it out. And incase anyone else has a similar question here’s what the answer was.

It turns out that if you have TLF text inside a mask or if it’s masked, when viewed in the browser only the embedded font is displayed. Any text or characters which aren’t embedded (usually display) will not display if the text field is masked in any way.

@FlashTang thanks for your reply. The idea behind the TLF text is you can embed the font you want to use, and then if you pass characters which aren’t embedded the TLF textfield will display the device font version of the text not embedded. Otherwise like you said you get a HUGH swf with all the added language support.
