Foreign Characters

programming flash
1

Hi

I have a flash file that is loading variables from an external .txt document into a Dynamic text field.

I’m having problems getting the Dynamic text field to display foreign characters. The characters displays fine on the text document but once they upload into flash they don’t display properly or don’t display at all.

In my dynamic text field I’m using Arial witch I know is capable to display all the foreign characters from the txt file. I tried using html font tags on the text file so it will be force to display Arial once loaded into Flash and didn’t help either.

Any ideas what can I do to have the foreign characters display properly once being loaded into Flash MX?

Thanks

Alex
