I am attempting to use several fonts in a tlftextfield with the markup property. Here is the significan portion of the markup:
<span fontFamily='Symbol' fontSize='14' renderingMode='embedded_cff' >q</span>. = _myUtilities.tfparse(_problemXML.question); //_problemXML.question
The AS3 code associated with this textfield is:
_myQuestion = new TLFTextField();
addChild(_myQuestion);
//_myQuestion.embedFonts = true
_myQuestion.defaultTextFormat = _standardFormat;
_myUtilities.setTxtFormat = _standardFormat;
_myQuestion.wordWrap = true;
_myQuestion.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;
_myQuestion.width = 365;
_myQuestion.x = 5;
_myQuestion.y = 5;
_myQuestion.tlfMarkup = _myUtilities.tfparse(_problemXML.question); //_problemXML.question;
_myQuestion.multiline = true;
I have loaded the Symbol font into the library and assigned it to the Symbol class.
When I compile and run my script the font from the markup reverts back to the system font, New Times Roman. I have several other fonts that use the same markup and work perfectly. Specifically Arial. It seems that somehow, I have not loaded the Symbol font properly or need to take some additional action to get it to work.
All suggestions are appreciated.
BTW: When I uncomment the embedFonts line, things really get jerky.
