Embedding fonts in Flex: just some glyphs

Monday, May 26th, 2008

This is not tutorial, I’m just trying to figure answer our for that question: Is it possible to embed just some glyphs of font in AS3.0 project? I’m using just FlexBuilder, but there some other way, please let me know, I need to know answer ASAP.

Please let me know if it is not possible as well. Till now I think it’s not possible…

Thanks in advance to anybody for answer!

You can specify a Unicode Range like explained here
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/2/docs/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDocs_Parts&file=00000792.html

or another workout is creating a SWF file from Flash IDE embedding the characters you want and embed inside your Flex project like this.

[Embed(source="include_src/swf/font.swf", fontName="Embeded font name")]private var EmbedFont:Class;

I’m not any Flex expert but at least it works. If there is better ways, I want to know.

Hey Keita :))

thanks you for you quick answer :)) I’ve already find Unicode Ranges in help, and it works like a charm.

Once again thank you
