[FONT=Arial]Hi, I am currently struggling big time with whole process of dynamic font loading. I created several swf’s. Each swf has its own font type with different styles. I have 3 swfs:[/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial] [/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial]1. arial: 4 fontclasses, regular, bold, italic, boldItalic[/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial]2. verdana: 3 fontclasses, regular, bold, italic[/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial]3. tahoma: 2 fontclasses, regular, bold[/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial] [/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial]In the first frame I have “Font.registerFont(classname);” for all available font classes and I also have a dynamic textfield on the stage for each class with the specific font selected.[/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial] [/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial]So I am loading these swf’s in my main project. [/FONT][FONT=Arial]For the Tahoma swf all works well, I can switch between “regular” and “bold”. [/FONT][FONT=Arial]For Arial however only “regular” works well. When choosing the bold version the textfield gooes all blank and italic appears as regular. I doubled check the properties of the font classes of Arial, they all seems ok.[/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial][/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial]I know it is difficult without seeing it but maybe this rings a bell with one of you? Does anyone has any idea what could be wrong? Or what I could try?[/FONT]
