type of font

Hello all. I’m having a small issue with encoding. I have embedded japanese characters that work no problem, displays clearly etc. my issue is that any actionscript is not visible unless i set to an english font.

in the xml file i use the following code: < a href=”asfunction:_root.catchLink,mp3player,mp3player/album1/mp3player.swf’>Listen< /a >

if i use an english font, the above ‘listen’ text displays, but the japanese comes up as garbage, if i use a japanese font, the japanese works but the link doesn’t show up…anyone ever seen this before?

haha yeah. the only thing is i had no idea how to do that before either I’m using one of the template on from flashden and am not very skilled at flash, actually ‘not very’ is an understatement…is there a simpler solution that doesn’t require a whole mass of coding? is there a way to embed 2 seperate fonts so that it calls the english and japanese text at the same time or something? i actually have no idea how to use the solution you posted before, where to put it, or whatnot

Ho man you call my coding whole mass of coding? Bad move by you bad move …….. Its clean easy to understand and its baby stuff +there is a download sample ……. Any ways try to get help from someone else.. Domo arigato…….

?huh?

Must be a case of misunderstanding I guess… As I mentioned “I am not very skilled at flash, actually ‘not very’ is an understatement”, so baby stuff to you perhaps, but to me very difficult to understand. Not all of us have learned the ins and outs of flash HENCE many people buying files here that require little to no customization. And as for “mass of coding”, to me even a simple button script is a mass of coding. I don’t see any veiled insult in those three words. Looking at my reply, I don’t see anywhere that I said it is not clean or whatever. But you’re right, I will get help from someone else, perhaps someone less condescending.

Way condescending, i took the time and wrote you a little sample + I step little more forward and upload this to my server so you can download it .

Any way for your case (will try to make this simple for you ) there are maybe 15-20 language that will give you a hard time when working with flash&Xml ,with Asian language.. Japanese(and of course your template doesn’t support traditional Japanese just the horizontal line) is one them, since you use regular embedding; you need to embed two type of font via library and you need to check your Action script if there is a var statement for more then 2 fonts embedding ,also the way to go since you don’t use TextEngine is use CSS (if you buy a template here on AD probably you have CSS support) try not to mix English and Japanese on the same line on the XML since I am almost sure your template you got is not set up for this base on the developer code .(this Apply to AS2 and AS3 )

You can go and look at AD help tips, there is a tutorial there (I think by Lance) on how to embed fonts.

If your link doesn’t show Japanese look at your CSS …., your Jap` font are probably not defined on the CSS .
