Marking it as utf-8 doesn't really make the document itself utf-8. You have to actually save it as utf-8.
In notepad you can select the encoding in the save as dialog (at the bottom). Make sure UTF-8 is selected, default is ANSI. The char list that works for me when using non-english languages are these: Uppercase Lowercase Numerals Punctuation Basic Latin Latin I regards, Muzak ----- Original Message ----- From: "Leandro Amano" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com> Sent: Monday, June 25, 2007 10:09 PM Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] loading xml into flash in spanish(desperate) In the embedFonts, select: Uppercase, Lowercase, numerals, ponctuation and Latin I.
