I have multiple dynamic textfields and am using the same pixel font in each. First question, in the characters palette when you embed the font (basic latin) and you do that for all your textfields (with the same font) are you increasing the file size of your .swf with each embedded textfield?
Second. I know you can use TextFormat and apply that to all textfields but all my textfields have masks and dynamic scrollers. I think I read the only way to embed a font with TextFormat on a masked dynamic textfield is to set the mask via AS ( setMask() ). Is this true? I tried before but it didn't work, maybe I did something wrong.
I'm not in the situtation at the moment to get real complicated, tricky, and slick with things. So in other words I'm looking for a simple solution, if there is one.
Thanks.
