Hi,

I know this has been done to death, but I still can’t find a solution.

Basically, I need the ability to embed multiple languages into flash, then display them when I want.

I tried Chinese, but every font I found dropped characters. So I’ve decided to go back to basics, and do European languages (French etc).

I’ve read quite a bit on it, about the unicode ranges etc, but I’m still struggling a bit.

Does anyone know of a list of fonts that encompasses certain languages?

I’m linking the font file to the library (which seems to only embed traditional English letter, a-z etc), so I guess I need a multinational font?

Has anyone ever had any luck doing this?

I’m using CS4/Flash Develop, and I can’t use device fonts.

Thanks in advance!
