Default font directory for Flash CS3 on Mac OS X?

Hi, I've installed a couple of fonts on my Mac that I want to use in Flash CS3, but they're not showing up in the font list. Where/how do I install them so that Flash will pick them up?
Thanks in advance!
Don

Thanks for popping in, but after hours of reinstalling and upgrading stuff, I'm finally where I need to be. Apparently, something went wonky with my Mac's font system, and it took me forever to clean everything up. But I think I'm golden now. Thanks!

  • Flex Component Kit for Flash CS3

    Hi,
    I created a flex component using the component kit for Flash
    CS3. The component contains a vector image wrapped as a MovieClip.
    In my flex application I add the component as child to a
    Canvas. It works well if i add it like -
    <mx:Canvas id="container" >
    <local:MyComponent />
    </mx:Canvas>
    or like -
    container.addChild (new MyComponent()); //DISPLAYED
    However, the component is not displayed when I do the
    following -
    var array:Array = new Array(new MyComponent());
    container.addChild(array[0]); //NOT DISPLAYED
    Can somebody tell me why this is so?
    I would also like to know if such components can be
    instantiated using flash.utils.getDefinitionByName.
    I tried it but I get Error #1065: Variable 'componentName' is
    not defined
    Could somebody please tell me what is going on?

    Hi bolaughlin,
    Thanks for you reply.
    Error 1065:
    import MyComponent;
    var comp:MyComponent = new MyComponent(); //Error 1065
    //Where MyComponent is the Flash CS3 clip that was converted
    to Flex component
    I have a workaround for this -
    I first add the component as an Mxml tag with visibility
    false and then remove the component
    with actionscript. Now all instantiations work normally (this
    includes all components in the SWC).
    <mx:Canvas id="container" >
    <local:MyComponent visible="false" />
    </mx:Canvas>
    and in <mx:Script>
    container.removeAllChildren();
    var comp:MyComponent = new MyComponent(); //Works
    var anotherComp:MyOtherComponent = new MyOtherComponent();
    //From the same swc; This also works.
    I have a feeling this problem is similar to the 'shared
    fonts' problem that
    existed with Flash MX and below.
    Anyway, even though I don't really know whats happening, my
    project can
    move ahead. Hopefully some Guru will explain this.
    Until then...thank you very much.

  • Message error from Adobe Indesign : Default font Substituted for missing do.

    Hello,
    Message error from Indesign : Default font substituted for missing font
    I am currently using version "Adobe InDesign CS6 Middle East," which normally supports the Arabic language ...
    The problem is that the characters display correctly and others not! Especially this "font" called "MunaPlain", this version was created in 1996. (on the Internet, I could not find a new version!)
    According to research, test... i have found that Mac OS X Lion that causes this error!
    My question is:
    Is that I could uninstall Mac OS X Lion to return to an older version as MAC OS X Leopard?
    Is there an update or plugin indesign for Arabic? (except ScribDoor, because in this case, it is useless)
    Thank you!

    For questions regarding Adobe apps, it is probably really best to ask Adobe or use their forums:
    http://forums.adobe.com/index.jspa
    I am amazed that an arabic font from 1996 would work correct anywhere today given the changes in technology that have occurred.  Is it really not possible for you to use a modern Unicode Arabic font for your work?  There are lots of them -- Apple gives you a half-dozen or so.  And there is a list at
    http://www.wazu.jp/gallery/Fonts_Arabic.html
    Whether you can downgrade your os depends on your hardware.  If it came new with 10.7 installed, then it is not possible.

  • Kuler Panel for Flash CS3

    I recently released my Kuler Panel for Flash CS3. It allows
    you to browse, search and select Kuler color schemes from within
    Flash CS3. Selecting a scheme will create a new layer with the
    swatches on it. You can learn more here:

    Bill–
    Is there any (public) timetable for the release of the Flash
    Lite for BREW Publisher for Mac? My ideal development scenario (due
    to the fact that I only have one legal license of Adobe Flash CS3
    and it's for the Mac) would be to develop using Flash CS3 within
    OSX, and then port my MOD/MIF files to my BREW device using
    Parallels and WinXP.
    Alternatively, I could have a dedicated version of Flash set
    up for BREW development (which I do with Flash 8). Obviously,
    however, buying two licenses of CS3 just to publish MOD/MIF files
    is less than desirable. Please let me know either way.

  • Does anyone know what the default font is for MacMail?

    Does anyone know what the default font is for the Mail program? My son changed my mail font and I want to change it back, but I can't remember what the original default is! Anyone? Thanks!

    I rarely use Mail (normally use Gmail in Safari) so I am 99.99% sure mine is still at the default. It is Helvetica 12.

  • Default font size for a value in a table in Answers

    Hi,
    I am trying to set a default font size for a column of table view in Answers, so that when I create a new report, this default font size is used. Can someone please point me to the file where I can make this change?
    Thanks

    Well if you have a tag like this:
    element.style {
    background-color:#FFFFFF;
    font-size:9px;
    It means it's coming from the formatting in the request in Answers...not from a style sheet! You'll note in Firebug, that there's actually no *.css file mentionned. I.e. example from here:
    element.style {
    color:#00AF00;
    .OORD {views.css (line 1574)
    text-align:right;
    .PTE {views.css (line 1077)
    background-color:#FFFFFF;
    First part element.style comes from my conditional formatting and doesn't reference any css file
    The other two elements are from the views.css which control my pivot table.
    See the difference?
    Cheers,
    C.

  • Can I Install Air update for flash CS3 on a cracked Flash CS3 Copy

    hi
    I'm from jordan I tried to buy Flash CS3 from Adobe and they
    said they only sell to US and Canada,
    so I had a cracked version (got it from the internet).
    could I install the Air update for flash CS3 on it
    thanks

    1) I do not say that I'm from jordan to make you care or not,
    I just want to say why I use cracked copy because I can not buy a
    good copy from my country.
    2) I do not steal or crack software I'm a multimedia
    developer and I had to use flash cs3, and if you want to judge me,
    go and judge cracker who put cracked copies on the internet first
    (and by the way in my country that you do not care about it there
    is no cracker we use cracked copies your country do).
    3) This question was for adobe team and not for you.

  • New 9.0.2 update for Flash CS3 Professional

    I just ran the new Flash CS3 Professional update via the
    Adobe Updater. Everything ran and reported the update was
    successfully completed. However Flash still says it's 9.0.0.494 in
    the Finder and when choosing About Flash from the program it says
    9.0. Just wondering if the update really happened or not.

    Bentley: There is a downloadable update available NOW. And
    based on what you say the language is confusing.
    12/12/2007 Adobe Flash CS3 Professional (9.0.2) delivers
    support for the latest update of Adobe Flash Player 9. This update
    includes a new Video Playback component supporting H.264, support
    for Flash Lite 3 Update for Flash CS3 Professional, and all Debug
    and Release versions of this new Adobe Flash Player. For users of
    Flash CS3 Professional, this update will also be available via
    Adobe Update Manager in Flash CS3 Professional.
    It states "Adobe Flash CS3 Professional (9.0.2)". You should
    change that, as it does not appear to be the case. The language
    definitely implies that the program itself will be updated to
    9.0.2.

  • Can't change default installation directory for silent installation of Flash Builder 4.5

    Hello,
    I'm trying to create a custom installation script for Flash Builder 4.5 in silent mode.
    I have created a flash builder msi installer using "Adobe Application Manager Enterprise Edition".
    I would like to change the default installation directory during silent installation.
    Could you please help ?
    Thank you in advance.
    Best regards,
    Ryad

    The install.xml in the "Adobe Flash Builder 4.5 Installer/deploy" folder will have the INSTALLDIR property. You can change this property to your custom location.
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <Deployment>
      <Properties>
        <!--Note that the INSTALLDIR value is machine specific.  The value below is a suggested default value but may need to be overriden.-->
       <Property name="INSTALLDIR">C:\Program Files\Adobe</Property>
      </Properties>
      <Payloads>
    </Payloads>
    </Deployment>
