Hello,

I’m trying to embed some text so I can see the same font on other computers. However, when I try to embed the outlines the text acutually screws up. All the holes in the letters like D and A fill in.

Any ideas… thank you for your time.

Choose a differant font, it appears you didn’t read the other thread which you replied in that says that you are using a photoshop pixel font which simply doesn’t work in flash.

Yea, I didn’t quite understand what the other one meant and didn’t wanna sound like too much of an idiot, but looks like in the end it didn’t matter. D’oh… N E ways… thanx.

i had a similar problem – but i changed the font to dynamic and it didnt fill in the letters like before. how come?

also, this may a silly question – but couldnbt you make the font a graphic and that way flash wouldnt read it as a font – so in the end – the letters wouldnt fill in (just curious)
