(How) can I use Embeded Fonts in Flex 3.3

If I understand correctly, I need to transcode/embed the fonts in Flex 4 / CS 4, but is there any way to then get those embeded fonts into a Flex 3.3 application?

Support for DefineFont4 (the cff property) is new in Flex Gumbo. It is not available in Flex 3.X. That said – I do have a solution for you. Create a separate Flex Gumbo project and use the cff property to embed the font you need into that SWF. Then embed the font SWF that you just created in Gumbo into your Flex 3.3 application.
Check out the “Building a Font SWF for use in any Flash Application” section in my DefineFont4 blog post:
http://blogs.adobe.com/tlf/2008/11/embedded_font_subsetting_using.html
Here is an article on embedding a SWF in Flex:

Hope this helps!

  • How can I use my fonts in Illustrator (CS4) without Suitcase?

    How can I use my fonts in Illustrator (CS4) without Suitcase? InDesign has a fonts folder, but not Illustrator.

    i found this info from this link: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3466307.  The user who asked this question stats this solution worked for them.
    First in Language and text preferences in the system preferences select Hebrew as the input method.
    The in Illustrator click the text tool in your document or drag to create a text frame.
    While the cursor is active select a hebrew font
    then go to the menu bar for the finder and where there is the American Flag pull it down and select hebrew
    now go back to the document and start typing.
    Remember if you do not have the ME version you have to have it flush right and type backwards.

  • How can I use phonetic fonts for cursors name

    Hi all!
    I need to use phonetic characters in cursors names. Does somebody know wich font I have to use for this ?
    One other problem is that I need to use Vietnamese characters at the same time. Is it possible to change the font of the cursors names run-time (in the diagram)?
    Last quetion: Does LabVIEW support unicode? If yes,how can I use it?
    Thank you for your help!

    Unfortunately, I don't know what the phonetic characters look like, so I
    can't
    tell you what to type to enter them. If you find them in Word,
    you should be able to copy them to the clipboard, they will be in
    Unicode, and paste them into LV -- where they will be converted to dual
    byte. If it doesn't work, try to find out if they are exist in the
    locale of your machine, or more importantly, the target machine.
    If you can display them, you can build a simple ring with short strings
    containing the phonetic characters. When the user picks something from
    the ring, use the strings property and value to index out the string and
    replace/append to the string the user is editing. You will want to pay
    attention to the string's selection if this is supposed to act like a
    character palette and either do an insert or replace.
    If you want a more compact grid menu, you will need to convert the
    strings to images and paste them in a pict menu. That value can be used
    to index a constant array that matches the order in the pict ring.

  • How can I use web fonts I purchased?

    I purchased Avalon from Font Spring (http://www.fontspring.com/fonts/fontsite/avalon) and it came with web fonts.
    How can I use the web fonts I bought with Adobe Muse?

    Hi,
    An update: Adobe Muse CC 2014.1 (released earlier today) includes support for self-hosted web fonts. To use a specific font in your Muse site (such as the Avalon that you purchased from FontSpring), you will need to install the system font (properly licensed for desktop use) and provide the corresponding web font files (properly licensed for use on a website).
    Give it a try and let us know if you need help or run into issues.
    Thanks,

  • How can I use two fonts in swing components?

    I want to implement a project. When a part of the JMenuBar, JButton or other swing components' text is English, I use Tahoma font, and other of these components' text is Chinese, I use SimSun font, just like the Chinese Windows OS. How can I implement it??
    Thanks!!

    Ooh, thats a tricky one. I'm not sure whether you can do that, but maybe someone else with more experienced can correct me.
    You'll probably have to create your own custom JMenu that displays two labels, one for English and one for the Chinese parts?

  • How can I use fonts found in iDVD 08 in other programs?

    I created a DVD using 6.0 Themes, Pass Through in particular, by exporting a slideshow movie from iMovie 06 and it looks great. Thank you's to forum members for the help I needed to resolve issues. Deleting the plist files and burning at 2 times speed did the trick to problems I encountered. But here's one I've been spending lots of time on: I used the font, Humana Serif Md ITC TT, on the DVD and I would like to use it on the printed cover, however, I can't access it from any other program. I've used Spotlight to no avail and it does not present itself on the list of available fonts on any other program I have. How can I use that font in Pages to use on my printed DVD cover?

    Kool! I just learned something new myself. (thanx Niel)
    It's essential that you do exactly as stated above while holding down the option key in the instructions that were kindly provided above. The option key serves to copy these files to an alternate location if I'm not mistaken. Holding down any other key but Option may have an unintended effect on the application itself.
    So please do exercise caution while working within the Resources folder / showing package contents.

  • Illustrator can't use bitmap fonts?

    In the list of available fonts, Illustrator CS5 just doesn't show a particular bitmap font (maybe it's skipping some others too, but I didn't check). I'm sure the font works well, in fact it shows up and works normally in Photoshop, and I also use it for interface in some other software that allows customizing of interface - in a few years never had a problem. If it matters, it's a fon file.
    Digging around the internet I didn't see anybody complaining about it, the only thing I've found is an article for beginners that talks about using bitmap fonts as if it were perfectly possible.
    So, how can I use this font in my documents? Or will I have to design everything in Illustrator and then finish it in Photoshop.
    Edit: if it matters I'm on Windows 7 64bit.
    Message was edited by: RayRayTea

    That's true, but what made me think Illustrator should be able to read a puny bitmap font is (among other things) this piece - I wouldn't trust it too much ("Pixel fonts are quite popular these days. It all started in Flash…") but it actually has screenshots, so I assumed they must have materialized from somewhere (and what it says about positioning of the lines is true, so it probably knows what it's talking about).
    Edit: and I just noticed… the fonts I actually have as "Hidden" (in the Font control panel) show up in Illustrator all right - Comic Sans says hello (I should have uninstalled it instead of hiding it I guess). Heh…

    Hi Matthias,
    Sorry, if this reply seems like a products plug (which it is), but this is really how we solve this software engineering challenge at JKI...
    At JKI, we create VI Packages (which are basically installers for LabVIEW instrument drivers and toolkits) of our reusable code (using the package building capabilities of VIPM Professional).  We keep a VI Package Configuration file (that includes a copy of the actual packages) in each of our project folders (and check it into source code control just as we do for all our project files).  We also use VIPM Enterprise to distribute new VI Packages over the network.
    Also, as others have mentioned, we use the JKI TortoiseSVN Tool to make it easy to use TortoiseSVN directly from LabVIEW.
    Please feel free to contact JKI if you have any specific questions about these products.
    Thanks,
    -Jim

  • How can I limit the fonts in the Character Map (charmap) and reinitialize the state after use?

    In a WPF application I have a RichTextBox in which users will be inserting text. I also must give the user the ability to insert characters. To do so I have called up charmap.exe using
    Process charProcess = new Process();
    ProcessStartInfo startInfo = new ProcessStartInfo();
    charProcess.StartInfo.FileName = strCharmap;
    charProcess.Start();
    etc., and it works fine. There are several problems I have basically with charmap, however, not with WPF. The first is that because of the subsequent use of the user’s insertion in the RTB, I must restrict the font to “Ariel Unicode
    MS.”  So far all I have been able to do is instruct and warn the user not to change fonts and 
    change back any font change that occurs as a result of use of “Advanced view” features.
    Question number one is, how can I restrict the fonts loaded into charmap to this one font? The second problem is that if another font is called up, or the “Advanced view” state of charmap is closed, or a “Group by” feature is opened, these choices will
    be retained for the next user that opens charmap. How can I initialize the state of charmap for each new user with the correct font and “Advanced view” features showing. It is said,but in old posts, that reinitialization occurs for all but administrative users,
    but this seems to be no longer true. I have tried permission changes in charmap’s Properties, but I can’t get the necessary reinitialization to occur even if user’s don’t have modify permission. Can one use a .ini file, or the .mui file, or make Registry changes
    to accomplish my goals. There seems to be a warning in the .mui file about changing fonts, but is it cancelled? I am using Windows 7 and C#.
    I have looked at other character maps but they are either too complicated for the casual user, or they have no search engine and advanced features, or they have the same problems.
    I am pretty much a novice with respect to the Windows files use and WPF, so please be fairly clear, complete, and prescriptive in your answer. Also so that I and others can learn, it would be nice to have an explanation of why one does whatever you suggest.
    Your help is appreciated.

    You can't.  Why do you want to do this?

    I think what this means is "I want to check to see how much hard disk space is available.  Also, I need to check the pixel dimensions of an image."
    Is that right?
    There is no way in the Flash Player (as far as I know) that you can determine the amount of free disk space.  However, in AIR you can use air.File.applicationStorageDirectory.spaceAvailable to determine the storage space available in the application storage directory.
    As far as determining the dimensions of an image, there are plenty of good resources out there on that.  Maybe this one will be helpful to you?
