Masking Dynamic Text

Trying to figure out how to mask dynamic text. For some reason It won’t work. A few people told me that it wasn’t possible. Seen an article that explained how to do it. But still confused. Can someone help?

you have to embed the font. when the properties window is open select your dynamic text box and click on the character button, and then select ‘all characters’ and then click Done. Then your dynamic text should be mask ok, however doing this adds 20-25 Kb to your file size. but its the only way as far as i know…

ahh… another fine example of a FAQ need… :slight_smile: I’ve personally tackled this one about 5 times.
