hello,

i’m in urgent need of your help: I just can’t seem to make flash display a few special chars such as “ ’ ”  
although they are in Arial and my textfields are set to display arial. I tried embedding the fonts, no luck.

if i replace them with ’ " it works though. Yet a lot of original documents need to be copy pasted in the database and i can’t ask the customer to manually change all accents.

what’ s going on?

thanks in advance for your help,

alex
