Re: FLASH: Updating Fonts

[John Croteau]

Hi Michael.


FLAs - authoring files -- you need the same fonts installed on all

authoring computers.


SWFs - 

1) regular Flash text is always exported with the font shapes and

everyone will see the same font shapes

2) special font designations _sans, _serif and _typewriter use standard

fonts form the user's computer.

3) text in fields use the font shapes from the viewer's computer unless

'Include font outlines' is checked then Flash supplies the font outlines

in the swf file and everyone will see the same regular Flash text.
