Order of operation does matter for this kinda thing, you have to embed
fonts
before setting the text and set the textFormat after, I believe. For
example, I know this works:
Hmmm... Maybe that´s the reason why I´m having inconsistencies... oh Flash
programming and it´s little hidden tricks... sometimes I feel like I´m going
crazy.

Try setting your textFormat after you apply the text.
Also, I try to make sure the linkage name of the font is the same as the
actual font for the purpose that its easier to read and self descriptive.

tf.wordWrap = true;
tf.text = "Testing this out";
tf.setTextFormat(myTF);

Subject: [Flashcoders] embedFonts vs. setTextFormat
Hi list...
The embedFonts line seems to prevent the setTextFormat line from
working. What am I missing? The font "univ" is in the library, and its
linkage is "univ."
Thanks,
- Michael M.
private function createSlideWatcher():Void {
var tf:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
tf.font = "univ";
tf.color = 0xFFFFFF;
tf.size = 30;
_root.createTextField("slideWatcher",
_root.getNextHighestDepth(), 10, 10, 150, 150);
_root.slideWatcher.background = true;
_root.slideWatcher.backgroundColor = 0x666666;
_root.slideWatcher.embedFonts = true;
_root.slideWatcher.setTextFormat(tf);
_root.slideWatcher.text = "hi";
}
