Hello!

I’m in the middle of the painful transition to AS3, and have encountered a stonewall. In AS2 you could export any font for actionscript and use its identifier (for example “Font 1”) in htmlText:

my\_text.htmlText = \<font face=“Font 1” size=“20”\>"+Some text+"\</font\>"

But what’s the procedure in AS3, as fonts doesn’t have identifiers, only a class name?
