Font usage question (Hoping for advice and recommendation on chinese font)

Hello guys,

1st of all, thank you for reading this post.

I’ve been assigned to develop my first flash chinese website (Translating it from the english version which is also flash) Technically using back 100% of fla files of eng ver.

Im loading text into dynamic textbox from .xml files. I understand .xml needs to set to UTF-8 etc and technically it’s showing up.

On my 1st attempt, i went for _sans / _serif and paste in the text from microsoft word. I notice _sans _serif font cant use bitmap text option and the font appears really blurry.

I took my friend advice in going for Mingliu font, as he told me that anyone that can view chinese font on a pc should have Mingliu font (somehow universal)

Embedding anything is totally out of the question, as you know embeding chinese font will skyrocket the swf filesize.

So I was hoping for some advice. Objective will be get the file size as normal, font looks sharp and crisp.

Thank you all for reading again

Cheers
