> But you can always embed a Flash text element in Director!
That's exactly what I have done, and it does the trick (and you get
the much better anit-aliasing of Flash). Director will mangle any
unicode text it gets its 'hands' on, for that reason I am loading all
my button and label text from a unicode file straight into the
respective flash text areas I have created.
You might run into problems though if the text that has been entered
needs to be stored and read out again and it has to inlvolve Director
to do (see above).
Incidentally (and very OT) you guys wouldn't know a reliable AND
straight forward way of connecting Flash to a database and put both
onto a CD-ROM (or any ROM media for that matter; or actually any media
that doesn't have a server built in or attached, or running).
The other trick I am using is to find a font for that
characterset/country I am developing for and then do all text related
stuff in that. It does need to be thoroughly tested on a native system
to make sure all keyboard keys create the right character on screen
(especially with free fonts).
