Maybe the font is being embedded in your code AFTER you are displaying
the other fields that also use the font [which means the initial fields
are un-embeded]? Or it could be you forgot to make the 'embed' setting
true on all fields...?
Also, the order of 'embed' and then setting the text is important, can't
recall offhand what that was, but if you search the archives I gave the
answer to the order importance about a month ago.
Good luck!

Hi Glen - thanks for the answer.. Yep - i remember that one - I tried
this at first and sadly it did not work...
however to make things stranger - the fonts work in the textfield when i
use the keys to select from the drop down (then mouse selection works).
But it does not work initially.
hmmm...

Hi,
Try putting a text field off the stage set and embed your chosen
font into it - that used to do the trick with AS2.

Hi list -
I am using the flash CS3 components - and have hit a little snag -
when testing in the IDE ( or just running the SWF ) all the fonts
show up fine - no problem. However the moment the site goes in the
browser - the font does not show up in the ComboBox textField,
however they show up no in the dropdown menu. I have embedded the
font in my library - and well - i have no clue as to why this is not
working in the browser.
this is the code i am using to format the combobox:
<code>
var tf:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
tf.font = "Gotham Medium";
tf.size = 12;
tf.bold = false;
cmb_mc.dropdown.setRendererStyle("embedFonts", true);
cmb_mc.dropdown.setRendererStyle("textFormat", tf);
cmb_mc.textField.setStyle("embedFonts", true);
cmb_mc.textField.setStyle("textFormat", tf);
</code>
Kind regards
