don't use the same name for your textfield instance and for your textformat instance. give them different names and make sure your library font has linkage id = Arial and enable the embedFonts property of your textfield.

Ok, thank you. How do you "enable the embedFonts property of your textfield.?" This is what I have thus far.

you have to use the textformat class to create a textformat object, embed your font and assign the textformat object to you textfield.

Thank you. I embedded the font into my library and I tried (using the help menu) to format the text but it doesn't appear to be working. You will have to forgive me I am new to learning actionscript. Thank you.
