Embedding Chinese Font (Please Help)


Hello guys,

Previously i posted a chinese font question, but no one answered. I'm still having alot of problems developing my 1st chinese flash website.

I notice http://www.ovalpartnership.com/ also has a chinese version, which i think they uses dynamic textbox and loads chinese text from .xml files.

I wonder how they keep their file size soo small and yet able to display crisp and nice chinese font. Did they embed the fonts? Whats their method of embeding?

Currently my swf is like 250kb. Having several dynamic textbox which loads the text from .xml file. After embeding the dynamic boxes with Traditional Chinese level 1 (5609 glyphs) it shot up to 1mb which is still acceptable. But i still have another dynamic box to embed, After embeding this box the file size shot up to 2.2mb. Then I notice certain specific word (chinese) weren't displaying at all (few missing words when displaying at swf)

Therefore I tried embeding Chinese (ALL) for 1st box which shot up to 2.5mb , after embeding 2nd box, the file size went 3.6mb which is totally not acceptable.

May I know what step can be taken to keep file size low, embedding the fonts smartly, displaying the font crisp and sharp.

I'm using Mingliu and PMingliu chinese font. I really dont care which font as long it keep file size low and look sharp and crisp.

Hope to hear from you guys..

I'm desperate for help =(

Font Usage Question (Hoping For Advice And Recommendation On Chinese Font)
Hello guys,

1st of all, thank you for reading this post.

I've been assigned to develop my first flash chinese website (Translating it from the english version which is also flash) Technically using back 100% of fla files of eng ver.

Im loading text into dynamic textbox from .xml files. I understand .xml needs to set to UTF-8 etc and technically it's showing up.

On my 1st attempt, i went for _sans / _serif and paste in the text from microsoft word. I notice _sans _serif font cant use bitmap text option and the font appears really blurry.

I took my friend advice in going for Mingliu font, as he told me that anyone that can view chinese font on a pc should have Mingliu font (somehow universal)

Embedding anything is totally out of the question, as you know embeding chinese font will skyrocket the swf filesize.

So I was hoping for some advice. Objective will be get the file size as normal, font looks sharp and crisp.

Thank you all for reading again

Cheers

Embedding Specific Characters For Japanese/chinese Fonts
Hi

I have a file which is reading unicode from an xml page.

I need to embed only the characters used - this includes some chinese and some japanese. I do not want to embed the entire font as the result is very very large and this is intended for a website.

I am working on a UK system.

Anyone have any solution other than installing a japanese version of flash on a japanese machine?

Thanks in advance.

Chinese Font? Which Font To Used? *confused*
Hello guys,

Pardon me if this question is really newbie like, but you prolly have expected since it's posted on "Flash Newbies" category hehe

I've been assign to develop a fully flash based website in chinese. (1st time)

So I'm really confused on which font to use, i've searched for help on several forums (ultrashock, actionscript, kirupa, etc.) but none is related to my topic.

I've followed advice from other members in copy pasting the chinese wording from microsoft word to flash (which works) and its displaying chinese words in the flash. My question is, which font should I use so that the font isn't blurry and looks crisp sharp (easier to read).

I've tried googling chinese pixel font, chinese font download etc.

Example font's i've downloaded and tried to use (http://www.sino.uni-heidelberg.de/ed...nese_fonts.htm) , i downloaded the font but it's not showing up in my flash 8. I tried using _sans & _serif , Both is okay lookin but still is blurry.

Putting it into photoshop and save it as an image and put it in flash isn't an option (I know it can be done, and prolly better). But due to how the fla is construct , i'm not allowed to do so..

For all of the above, the font is merely used on static text mode.

-------

2nd question.

A certain part of the flash site uses dynamic textbox and load .xml file into it. I understand that .xml needs to set to UTF-8 etc and it's showing up on the .swf. Also a question of which font to use for the dynamic textbox? I do not want to embed the fonts as it will increase the file size alot. So same question, how do I make it clean,sharp & crisp.

I'll be looking forward in hearing from you guys

Cheers

Chinese Font
Hi, I've a Flash-Movi with german text. Now I've to exchange the german for chinese text, because the Flash-Movi should be send to china. I've no idea, what I've to attend. Do I need a chinese language-font, or is it enough to find a european font which supports chinese signs? Can chinese people read this?

It would be great, if there is someone who can help me.

Thank you very much.

Chinese Font Problem
hi,

i have problem displaying chinese font correctly in MX. when the text is in edit mode, or it is dynamic text, there is no problem.

i could use dynamic text, but the dynamic text is not anti-aliased, which looks pretty bad.

any idea of how to fix this??

Problem With Chinese Font Display, Plz Help
Hi everyone, my friend want me to help him make a flash movie with chinese font in it. I donno Chinese but he gave me all the words and I just copy and paste them to the flash, first I found out flash doesn't seems to support chinese font cus whatever I paste in the text box in flash only appeared to be some weird symbols, then I read through the help section in flash and found out I can enable them by going to adjust some options in windows, so I did. Now that I can see the chinese fonts display correctly in the flash work space, but HUGE problems comes when I publish it! If I set all chinese font to static text they will all get stuffed like an "0" character will turn out as a solid circle with color filled inside o_O. If I use dynamic text they looked fine but the font size will go crazy on different computer, Iike I use size 12 font in my work space and when published it will look like size 24 and that makes all words go off position or even off screen cus the words are too big. I've been suffering for a week now trying to fix it but no luck, can someone please give me a hand and tell me what could went wrong?? I'm using Flash MX and the flash movie is projector file.

Using Japanese And Chinese Fonts Without Font Symbols.
Hi there,

Using japanese and chinese fonts without font symbols.
I use a V2 textArea component

fontSymbols in flash library + xml loading + css applying.
Works great, text is displayed correctly with the correct font and formating, bitmap fonts or anti-aliased.

But as you know if you dealt already with such a situation each font symbols adds a lot to the swf files (more than 1 meg +/ font symbol).


Instead of using font symbols, which embed the complete font, I've decided to test a workaround. The good classic method of using a dummy text field to which you define selected embed options.

So I have the following:
a dynamic text field with "abcJapanese font" with embed option japanese kana and kenji. Named : dummy_txt
a textarea component named test_cpn editable turned off and html turned off through Flash Gui.
code on frame 5:

ActionScript Code:
test_cpn.setStyle("embedFonts",true);
test_cpn.setStyle("fontFamily","イワタ中ゴシック");
test_cpn.setStyle("fontSize","13");
test_cpn.text="<u>test</u> あなたのブランドの雰囲気をあなたの独自性を尊重しながら作り出します。";

What I've tested:

A: dummy_txt with antialias for animation
---> works japanese font displays correctly in textarea component.
this works with japanese fonts which displays correctly in flash font selector or with unrecognized characters like those desplayed with squares.
B: dummy_txt with no antialias
---> nothing appears in textarea component.
C: dummy_txt with antialias for animation + test_cpn.html=true
---> nothing appears in textarea component.
D: dummy_txt with antialias for animation + test_cpn.editable=true
---> nothing appears in textarea component.

C et D seems to produce same results with regular occidental fonts. As soon as a modification is done to the text area nothing appears anymore...


Thank you in advance for your help.

Chinese Font Support In Dynamic Fields In CS3
Hi
I understand that in pre-CS3 Flash you had to embed the entire Chinese character set in EACH dynamic text field you wanted to use it in, blowing out the size of the FLA. I have a site where I want Chinese or English text to appear in dynamic fields based on a user's region - is CS3 better at this?

Embedding Font And Dynamic Html Text -> Font Is Gone
Hi there ,

I've been searching all over this forum and searched on Google for an answer to this question but can't find an answer that works to me.

I have some dynamic textfields and I retrieve the data from a databases. Each textfield has a handwritten font which I embed using Character Options in the Text Properties. That works fine.

The problem is, when I check the 'Render as HTML' checkbox and send simple HTML-tags to it, the html-tags still work but the handwritten font is gone! I really tried lot of things but it really doesn't work to me.

I really hope someone can help me. I really appreciate it!

Kind regards,

forcer

Embedding A Font? Bug?
In this movie:
http://www.midnight007.com/pizza/layer_root_3.swf

When you click on any of the pizza slices (which pulls up another movie layer), the dynamic titles switched by a switch statement do not show up. They show up on any computer that the font is ON. However, I can't get the titles to work on any other computer. I've tried embedding the characters of the font, I've tried linking the font from the original root movie, and I've also tried actually writing the titles in the movie to the right of the frame (as you will see - and those are in the correct font) - but still the dynamic title is not showing up on computers that don't have the font.

Any other ideas as to how to get the titles to show up?

Embedding A Font
Hi, I need help with a problem with embedding a font and using it to format a dynamic scrollable textbox in actionscript, maybe I've missed something fundamental.

Anyway, I first added a font to the library and did the linkage and gave it an identifier of Font_MSS with the export to action script checked.

then in the following code I added the line to the “// format the font for the scroller text” section with :-

scrollerTxtFormat.embedFonts = true;

Although the text shows up it has no effect on the font itself, it remains as the default font.

any ideas?

many thanks

Cheers Rob.



Code:
// Loads the XML file
#include "external as/xmlnitro.as"
xmlData = new XML();
xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;
xmlData.onLoad = loadXML;
xmlData.load("xml/StringAboutText_XML.xml");


// Variables to hold the node and attribute values from the XML file.
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
_root.scrollerTxt = this.firstChild.childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;


// Create empty textfield called scroller
_root.createTextField("scroller", 14, 40, 270, 500, 162);
//scroller.embeded = true;
scroller.type = "dynamic";
scroller.multiline = true;
scroller.html = true;
scroller.wordWrap = true;
scroller.selectable = false;
scroller.htmltext = _root.scrollerTxt;


// format the font for the scroller text
scrollerTxtFormat = new TextFormat();
scrollerTxtFormat.embedFonts = true;
scroller.setTextFormat(scrollerTxtFormat);

// create a scrollbar for the scroller text
_root.initialization = {_targetInstanceName:"scroller", horizontal:false};
_root.attachMovie("FScrollBarSymbol", "scrollBar", 15, initialization);
scrollBar._x = scroller._x+scroller._width+15;
scrollBar._y = scroller._y;
scrollBar.setSize(scroller._height);

// Format the scrollbar
scrollBar._width = 15;
scrollBar.setStyleProperty("arrow", 0x000000);

Second Day Without Font Embedding...
I'm at a loss for how to fix my font embedding issue. I've redone it many times using adobe source, AS3 Cookbook source, online tutorials, searched forum results, and nothing works. I have a font, Square721ExBT. It is inside my windows/fonts directory. I've tried some of the following, comment lines show different methods:


ActionScript Code:
// _header is a new TextField(); Assume after first example the _header lines are the same

[Embed(source='C:WindowsFontssqr721e.TTF', fontName = 'Square721', mimeType='application/x-font-truetype')];
_headerFMT = new TextFormat();
_headerFMT.color = 0xFFFFFF;
_headerFMT.font = new Square721;

_header.embedFonts = true;
_header.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;
_header.text = "This is a header font.";
_header.setTextFormat(_headerFMT);

//////////////////////////////////////////////
// Attached in Library Given name of Square721
_headerFMT = new TextFormat();
_headerFMT.color = 0xFFFFFF;
_headerFMT.font = new Square721(); //Compile error

//////////////////////////////////////////////
// Read that the name matters tried sqr721e
_headerFMT = new TextFormat();
_headerFMT.color = 0xFFFFFF;
_headerFMT.font = new sqr721e(); //Compile error

The list goes on as I've been trying for quite some time now. Many give me errors, few just don't do anything. The closest I've ever been was one showed the text in white but using Times not my font. Please any suggestions! Also I can never set the defaultTextFormat of the textfield. It returns "1195: Attempted access of inaccessible method defaultTextFormat through a reference with static type flash.text:TextField."

Embedding Font Help
Hi, All!

I am reading flash help file about embedding font, and more I read more I confuse. If someone could answer my questions I would be very thankful, because I am stuck.

1)If I am using Static text box, I do not have any opportunity to embed a font for it? What should I do, if the font is not installed on a user's system? The only way out is to make it bitmap text?

2)If I need to use some special font in dynamic text field, why do after embedding font into the library I also need to embed characters? If I embed only Characters, my font is shown also on the user's system, that doesn’t have that font installed, than why I should I embed font and when should I embed?

Please, someone, answer…

Font Embedding
I've been scouring the internet for the last few days trying to fix this issue that I'm having. I'm working on a project in CS3, using Actionscript 3.0 and cannot for the life of me get my fonts embedded. I am using the "FFF" fonts, namely FFF Executive Extended, and FFF Business.


ActionScript Code:
var myTextFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
myTextFormat.font = "FFF Executive Extended";
myTextFormat.size = 8;

var myTextField:TextField = new TextField();
myTextField.text = "blah blah blah";
addChild(myTextField);
myTextField.setTextFormat(myTextFormat);

the text fields are being created from external .as files, which are working fine. If I have the fonts enabled on my computer everything is displayed perfectly, but if I disable the fonts, a default font is used.

I've tried to embed the fonts using the method which requires creating a new library instance of a font, checking the linkage properties so that it exports for actionscript and exports in the first frame.

I've also created a dynamic text field on the stage, chosen to embed characters, and selected relevant characters - I even tried it once with all characters chosen. No dice.

Like the subject line says, I'm at my wit's end with this, because I simply cannot figure out why this isn't working! Please please please help me!

Font Embedding
So, I tried this in different ways, but nothing seems to have worked so far.

I have a movieclip containing a vector and in it I want to place a label. I linked this movieclip to a class. The movie is supposed to be scalable, so I can't just add a textfield with embedded fonts to the movieclip in the library, since it would stretch.

That's why I want to add the textfield dynamically through the class constructor. I created a font symbol in the library, but I can't quite figure out how to import and use the font in an external class.

edit: I'm not using Flex, just AS3. So [Embed] won't work

Hi,

I want to use Futura LT BT and Futura MD BT font in dynamic labels, I have already embedded characters as described in Flash Live docs, but it is not working consistently. On Some screen it works and on some screens my label just disappears.

I also tried font embedding my creating font symbol in library and then importing runtime, but I got the same inconsistant result as described above.

If anyone has another solution then please revert back.

Font Embedding
Here is a site that loads fonts as part of a shared library I think.

Blue Cotton

I have a site that has 90 fonts for a design application. The shared font file is 3.8 megs! It takes forever to download. In my shared font library swf that is 3.8 megs I just have the fonts in the library and then a linkage id. I believe these fonts are embedding all character glyphs. I could really shrink the size of my shared font library if I could change this to only upper case, lower case and punctionation. Is there a way to do that for each font?

Or is there a better way than how I'm doing this?

Thanks

Embedding Font.. I Know..
I have a main swf. It loads child swf's using loadMovie.

I embed a font in one of the child swf's by saying Character > All.

Do I have to embed the same font in all of the child swf's ?


Thanks

Embedding A Font?
Alright, I got 3 fonts that are used in my site design, no one can see them (or at least, I don't think they can) they say it's blurry (most likely because they're seeing the wrong font (arial or something), so...I think embedding the fonts is what I want to do, right? And if so, how do I do that?! Thanks for the help.

Embedding A Font
Hi there!
.
Please visit query31.net
.
You`ll notice that the font used in the floating captions
is different to the one which is used in the info-text.
The caption`s text comes from a variable which is
different for each button.
.
I thought fonts are embedded automatically?
Does this work for dynamic text, too?
How? (;

Font Embedding... Help
Hi there,
Is there any way to make a swf install a font into any computer that runs it? I've tried the dynamic text embeding thingie but I didn't get it to work, so I wonder if I could just make the swf upload the font to the user...
it's really important, since no text at all is appearing in some computers...

thanks in advance.

Font Embedding Question...
is it possible to embed a font in a flash movie just once in the main movie clip and have all other movie clips loaded dynamically use the same font without having to embed it in every instance of a loaded clip?

if it is, how is one to accomplish this?

Globally Embedding A Font?
Is there a way to globally embed one or two fonts? Like, if I have 20 different swfs that gets loaded in and out of 1 main swf, can I just embed the font in that main swf and have it work for every dynamic field? If so, how do I do it?

_global.styles.TextArea.setStyle("backgroundColor" , "none");
_global.styles.TextArea.setStyle("fontSize", "8");
_global.styles.TextArea.setStyle("embedFonts", "true");
_global.styles.TextArea.setStyle("fontFamily", "FFF Business");
var xmlURL = "beliefs.xml";
var myXML = new XML();
myXML.ignoreWhite = true;
myXML.onLoad = function(success) {
if (success) {
trace("XML is loaded");
_root.beliefs.text = this.firstChild;
} else {
