In a previous post (”Embedding and animating fonts in a Flex application“), we looked at embedding a font in a Flex application so we could animate, rotate, and set the alpha for a Text control. Well, as we learnt, sometimes embedding a whole font face can dramatically increase the size of the final SWF output. In this post we’ll look at only specifying a certain range of characters for an embedded font, which will help reduce file sizes.

I meant to post this earlier, and I already touched on font embedding in an earlier post (Building a basic controller for the VideoDisplay control), but here’s a quick little way to embed a font in a Flex application.
In this example we embed a font (the awesome “Base 02″ PC TrueType font (TTF) from http://www.stereo-type.net/), animate it using the Zoom effect and the Elastic.easeOut easing method. We also set the rotation and alpha properties (which you can’t do with non-embedded fonts), and we set the fontAntiAliasType to “advanced” to give the font a cleaner look. Finally we use the effectEnd event to loop the animation.
