Okay, I’m pretty new to Flash MX so I’m sure this is a no-brainer. When I use a pixel font (from Fonts For Flash) as dynamic text in a scrolling text box I can’t seem to figure out how to embed the font. It works fine in Static text mode because it embeds automatically but I understand, at least from reading that you must manually do it in Dynamic mode. Does anyone have the answer to this problem, my problem?

Eternally grateful,

bigjake

Hi,

It 's in the “character” button, next to the var field in the properties inspector.

I’m attaching a screen grab

Cheers
