Embed Fonts

[marky21356]

I am trying to embed some fonts in my text area component. I use the folowing script:

text_area_02.color = 0x666666;
text_area_02.embedFonts = "FFF Harmony";
text_area_02.fontFamily = "FFF Harmony";
text_area_02.fontSize = 8;
text_area_02.fontStyle = "normal";
text_area_02.textAlign = "right";
text_area_02.depthChild0._alpha = 0;

The fonts are not embeded...you can see at www.krukiel.com and go to an image icon then to info...what gives? Should I just change to ariel?

thanks,

Mark

Have you added the font to your library? On your library choose new font, select the font and give it a name. Then refer to that name in the embed code.

txt_area.embedFonts=true;

try that

Thanks a lot for helping -- I will try both of your suggestions. I broke down and called Macromedia tech support and they said that the text components don't support embedded fonts, but just between you and me..they may not know what they are talking about!

Thanks,
