Weddings, Winding and some simsun-PUA is display incorrectly. Can you help me to figure out what 's wrong with it. Here 's quick "how to": 1) 1) Create a new Flex Project in Flex Builder 3. 2) Copy the code from the post into your new Flex project’s default .MXML file. 3) Open your project properties. On the Flex Compiler, input "10.0.10" for the item "Require Flash Player version" to specify the flash version 3) Run the project from Flex Builder and verify it works. Hi,

Make sure that if you embed a font, that every font used by the movie is embedded. Because if flex tries to use a font that is not embedded, Flex will automatically switch to using system fonts. IT WILL IGNORE YOUR EMBEDDED FONTS. In my project, I was embedding 2 non-system fonts. The Rich Text editor by default uses Verdana to display your text size, font, all the control components that belong to the Rich Text Editor... And since I didn't embed Verdana, Flex ignored my embedded fonts, and forced the movie to use Verdana. After I embedded the system font (Verdana) everything worked as expected.
