Dynamic Text Embed Font

[Mark McCarthy]

Hi Folks,

I posted earlier about a dynamic text field i am populating randomly using
words from a text
file. My issue now is when i embed fonts for this text box it no longer
displays the text, however
as soon as I remove the embed font option it displays again.

Is it possible to embed fonts for dynamic text fields?


I also experienced the same disappearing text issues when attempting to mask
the movie clip that
contains the text field.



cheers
mark.

i actually am trying something close.... i have input fields for the user and
matching dynamic fields to display what they type in.... i want the user to be
able to change the font to 1 of 4 or more that i have set.... you can embed
fonts for it ...but i'm trying to set it so they can change the font displayed
in the dynamic text box....any idea

try tying something in the text box with the font of your choice (and style
i.e. bold, ital) then choose embed
you can leave whatever you typed in there since it's going to get replaced
dynamically with txt you loaded

if that doesn't work, see if your txt file contains any wierd characters of
proprietary formatting

and when dynamic text field is masked you have to embed fonts. without
embedding no text will appear
