Hi,

I'm having issues whne I try to use Lucida Sans in my application. I'm embedding several fonts and all of them are working ok. even Lucida Sans is been embedded and displaied correctly, the problem is when I select text, the selection is offset:

I just noticed the same issue in the TLF Editor Demo whne the "lookup" properti is set to "Device":

The weird thing is that in my application, I'm using:

textLayoutFormat.fontLookup = flash.text.engine.FontLookup.EMBEDDED_CFF;

When I apply the font.

Any Ideas?

What version of TLF do you use? I had the similar issue with build 4.0.0.10485. But when I switched to 4.0.0.12575 it's gone.

If you are not seeing this same problem with other embedded fonts, maybe it is a problem specific to this font. Where did you get it from? Are you using Windows or Macintosh?

Thanks,

@robin. I have tried several versions of the font. I'm using a Mac. as I mentioned I have this problem only with Lucida Sans.

@Alexander. I just installed the SDk 4.1.0.16076 and still have the problem.

Oscar,

I've looked at a few versions of Lucida Sans I have available, and I'm not seeing the highlight problems you are. Do you know where your copy of Lucida Sans originated?

Thanks,

Alan
