Hi folks, nice to meet you all, I’m new to kirupaForum 🙂

I have a problem with dynamic text. I’m using Flash 8 but I’m required to export Flash 7 for this. The client wants to have spacing between characters in text. While I know this is easily achievable in Flash 8 with the letterSpacing attribute, I was stunned to discover that Flash 7 does **not** support this attribute.

So, considering that the text box is generated dynamically, how can I achieve this ?

Thank you all  
Radu
