Please Help - Very Easy Fix but I'm dumb

[dmcgibbo]

Hi,
I am making a webpage and have a flash toolbar. Anyway, I put page banners before the toolbar in text in a font that most people don't have so it comes up on my computer in that font but on other people's computers its just Arial or something. How do I make it so that I can make that text word a picture so I can just use the banner as a picture so visitors don't need to install that font? If you go to my site after installing the font called Mayonaise (a really cool font) you can see the banner at the top. Should I add the banners to the flash toolbar or keep them separate and make them into pictures or what? I'd appreciate it soooo much if someone would help me w/ this. I was trying to make it so that on each page - for instance on the Guestbook page, the banner would say Guestbook in the Mayonaise font and the toolbar/guestbook button would remain purple on that page so visitors remember what site they are on. PLEASE help at least w/ how to make the banners into a picture or add it to the flash bar or whatever I need to do.

thanks! dmcgibbo@email.unc.edu

Once you've typed your text, to make it an image, simply select it and break it (ctrl b), then you can regroup it (ctrl g).

As for the buttons remaining different colours for their assigned page, I recomend posting a question in the actionscript section, which, if you're new to would be rather complex...? See how you go.

hope i understood ur question correctly:

To incorporate a font in your swf file (flash file) - u need to do the following:
- open the library (Ctrl +L) -> Click on 'Options' on the top right corner -> Click on 'new font' -> select the font that you want to incorporate in ur file - give a name -> after this: go and select the text in the banner and choose the new font name that u gave it now (there will be a star in the font name)

in this way, u can keep the banner also in the flash file - which will be easy to control

hope it helps!!
