@ Targo and also for others who got same error use unicodeRange property while embedding using embed [Embed(source="./assets/times.ttf",fontFamily="timesNewRomanFont", mimeType="application/x-font-truetype", unicodeRange="U+0021-U+007B")]

Can I just say again that you’re the greatest. Every time I have a flex question a little googling has me ending up here. I was trying to figure out how to actually find the ranges. Thanks for the tip on using the character map.

Hi
Thx for all supporting help from your website

Now here i am in trouble and i need your help.
The problem is like we have three diffrent-2 project and we want to make one common RSL file for all. i mean here as we used component it increase the size of .swf file so here i want to maintain all component like button,datagrid……etc into that RSL file so that in rest of application we dont need to increase the .swf file size,, i mean as per my knowledge “framework.swc” has all definition of all component and which one we are using it gives related files into .swf. now is it possible if we maintain all component into one RSL file so that In rest of application we need only include that perticular .swc (RSL) like Cairngron.swf work..

plz help me out…

thx
Maneesh
