Ok this seems straight forward! But won’t embed a font in a combobox for flash 8.

I have the font in the libary ‘arial’ and set linkage to ‘my\_font’.

What needs to be changed?

[SIZE=2]embed text for comboboxes -  
nsf = new FStyleFormat();  
nsf.textColor = 0xFF9999;  
nsf.textSelected = 0x0000FF;  
nsf.textSize = 22;  
nsf.embedFonts = true;  
nsf.textFont = “my\_font”; // linkage ID  
nsf.addListener(combo1,combo2);  
[/SIZE]
