I’m trying to get my dynamic TextField to accept input of swedish characters (as in åäöÅÖÄ), and keep failing at it… do I need to set something special in my AS3 code? Embedding extended latin doesnt seem to do the trick…

Thanks for any hints on this.

Make sure the font you are ambedding has the ÄÅÖäöå glyphs.
