Good day all… so I’ve tried a number of different myformat and setnewformat methods and still can’t seem to get the fontstyle(FFF Corporate) to display in my Dynamic Text Field.

Here is my code://

createTextField(“my\_tf2”, 0, 63, 100, 500, 600);  
tf2 = new TextFormat();  
tf2.font = ‘FFF Corporate’;  
tf2.size = ‘8’;  
my\_tf2.wordWrap = true;  
my\_st2 = “1997 - Internship With Hale+Co. Located in the Design District, Miami, FL. My main tasks at Hale+Co. were Design and Layout, Client Briefs, doing wraps, mini\_opens, scans, chromas and some video editing in the process and us”;  
onEnterFrame = function(){  
var nowStep = Math.min(step, my\_st2.length)  
var stringChunk = my\_st2.substr(-nowStep);  
my\_st2 = my\_st2.slice(0, -nowStep);  
my\_tf2.text = stringChunk+my\_tf2.text;  
if(my\_st2.length\<1){  
onEnterFrame = null;  
lastChar2 =text.length;  
setTextFormat(lastChar1, lastChar2, tf2);  
}  
}

Anyone that could assist me in figuring this out? I’d greatly appreciate it…
