UTF support in SWF

[lordali]

Hi,

I have a question. Do we have UTF support in Flash MX 2004 Or in Flex 2?

Like I want to type language in Arabic and want to see in SWF. Will it
support UTF code to display it.? Because dream weaver is displaying properly
but when I used Flash MX 2004 its not.

Any one help please

Thanks

unicode support in flash/flex? yes. RTL support in the flash player? nope.

The String data type represents a sequence of 16-bit characters. Strings are
stored internally as Unicode characters, using the UTF-16 format.

By default, text encoding is in the UTF-8 format. You can change the encoding
to other formats (ISO, ASCII, UTF-16, and so on) as needed.

You can use the UTF-8 encoding format to ensure maximum platform
compatibility. UTF-8 provides a unique number for every character in a file,
and it is platform-, program-, and language-independent. If you specify an
encoding format, it must match the file encoding you use.
