Hi,

  we are developing an air application using html+js which use embedded font (using css @11220649-face). On the Mac the fonts looks great with antialiasing enabled. On all windows (we tested both xp and vista) the fonts instead look very crappy, is there any way to enable antialiasing in webkit also on windows ?

Facing the exact same problem, rendering of @font-face fonts in Air on Windows gives very different results from what you would expect. Did you find a solution to this?

Thank for your answer, in Flex/AS it works just fine.

The issue is related to font loaded with @font-face inside an htmlloader/main air content. We have just  an index.htm file (added in the application descriptor file) and a css:

index.htm:

<html><head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" type="text/css" media="screen" title="style" charset="utf-8"/>
</head>
<body><h1>Test</h1></body>
</html>

style.css:

@font-face {
    font-family: CustomFont;
    src: url('mycustomfont.otf');
}
h1 {
    font-size: 11px;
    font-family: "CustomFont";
}
