Embedding Fonts In Flex - Tip

Short and sweet, if you want to know the Unicode ranges for various glyphs, such as Latin 1, Cyrillic and so on, open up flash-unicode-table.xml from your “Flex SDK/frameworks/” directory.

You’ll find everything listed, and it’s a good way to save on font size.

I wrote a ant+python script that will convert a string to the unicode characters it contains. This allows me to create fonts for Flex that contain only the characters a particular locale requires.

You can find in my sites repository: http://svn.danielwood.co.uk/portfolio/trunk/
