Flash Sees Text Inside <b> Tag as Seperate Font and Must Be Embedded

Nate Weiner - Posted in What I've Learned, , , Comments (0)

In flash, if text inside html tags like <b> or <i> is not appearing in your dynamic textfields, you need to embed the stylized font. Flash/Actionscript sees the text inside as a seperate font and therefore it also needs to be embedded.

For example, if you have a dynamic textfield with Arial. If you add a bold tag (<b>) around text inside the field, you will need to additionally embed Arial with bold turned on into your flash document.

I ran into this while working on flash graphs for Tail Report.

I found the answer in the Los Angeles Flash Users Group (via Google)
