Thanks to these posts:
I know how to embed fonts from inside CS3. I have been working for two days to try to figure out how to embed fonts using an external .as file.
I have looked at:
http://www.tink.ws/blog/embedding-fonts-in-as3/
and I have been trying to use the “[Embed] metatag”, but I can’t seem to get it to work.
I realize that embedded fonts is done differently based on what environment you are coding in, and perhaps I have twisted together incompatible methods.
I am about ready to quit on embedded fonts and just try to avoid rotating my text around. I haven’t encountered anything else in learning AS 3.0 that has slowed me down this much. I would really appreciate some help with this.
Here are a few questions if the request to explain how to do this is to vague:
- Can I embed a font that I did not include in the library?
- Where do I place the [Embed] metatag, inside the class definition, outside the class definition, if I have to place it at all?
If you can help me understand what I am doing wrong I would be very appreciative!
