Hi,
Sorry for two very similar posts, but I am stuck (AS3 + Flex beta 3)
I run open flash chart: http://teethgrinder.co.uk/open-flash-chart/
So people can create graphs and add titles and stuff. I get a lot of questions about Farsi, Arabic, Chinese, Norwegian (etc etc) languages…
Now, my ultimate solution would be to somehow use the fonts on the client machine to show all these languages, so somehow use their default font.
To test the charts I would need to include all of the above fonts on my machine, but these would not be in the .swf
Is this possible?
Please note that the Y axis text is vertical so I need to be able to rotate these fonts. Possible? Is there a text-to-image-roate-image hack I could use?
All the text is HTML with CSS styling, so they can make the title blue and bold if they want
the title text and css style is passed in via the data file.
How would you guys go about doing this?
So:
- Many fonts and languages.
- Some right to left languages.
- Rotate fonts.
- HTML and CSS in an ideal world.
- How do I test this on my machine?
I think language is SUPER important, if I were Korean I would want to see Korean, not English 
Is there one SUPER font that has all the unicode characters in it? Would that help?
Any help would be really appreciated
