flex - Is it possible to automate font embedding in Actionscript 3? Or being able to take fonts from a directory and use them at runtime? -
I have searched high and low for an answer and this may be a stupid attempt, but I want to be able Read the fonts from a directory on runtime for use in an Action Script / Flex App
I have seen the answers given on the web and rely on fonts inserted in all external SFFs and of course the embed meta Tags or styles rely on, one place To be able to use the other fonts directory, it is not user-friendly, which tells the user to compile their own switches to use the app
only one answer I can see that a server is running mxmlc and every time a user wants to update his fonts, and when he / she wants to compile the app again when needed, but its small amount of embedded tags Making .mxml file area, so it is the only possible answer? Thankyou for your time
Adobe has a new library called TLF - though it's Flex 4 Made in, you can easily import the library SWC into your 3.x SDK. It is extremely powerful for the lessons of all things, and allows it to use all the fonts on the user's computer, which are located in their system's font directory (i.e. C: \ windows \ fonts)
< P> Here is a link on Adobe's page (install the download and instructions):
... and there is a demo app that they cook for it ( It's showing your device fonts to the right There is a learning curve using it, but once you do it, it is really difficult to return to the text box.
I hope that helps!
