1. Re: CS4-AS2 : Annoying substitute fonts window
Ned Murphy Jul 29, 2009 6:10 AM (in response to GerryIsHere)If you read what that font mapping interface says, it indicates that the fonts you subtitute are not saved with the file. So to keep that interface from popping up you either need to go to each instance of use of that font (would be indicated by the font name in parentheses) and replace it with the font on your system or find that old font and get it into your system (which I have no clue about).

2. Re: CS4-AS2 : Annoying substitute fonts window
GerryIsHere Jul 29, 2009 6:39 AM (in response to Ned Murphy)Thanks for your reply!
The windows doesn't specify that the font I substitute isn't saved with the file...
The window says:
"The document "xxx.fla" contains one or more fonts currently not available on your system. The text will display and publish with the font mapping below:
VerdanaReg* Verdana Bold
System Default (button) Substitute font: Verdana (ComboBox) Bold (ComboBox)
Cancel OK (buttons) "
In the Find and Replace Panel, I tried to find the fields where VerdanaReg* is used in order to replace the font.
Search returned no result!!! I didn't even get the choice of this font!
Since my document has almost three hundreds Dynamic and Input Fields (It's a Directory interface), it will be a tedious task to find manually where this dam... font is set in the Field Properties panel...
What do you think?
Should I built another .fla starting from scratch?
I can't even imagine this...

3. Re: CS4-AS2 : Annoying substitute fonts window
pup500 Nov 21, 2014 6:12 PM (in response to GerryIsHere)The "Font Mapping" dialog is one of the most infamously slightly unsettling dialogs in all of Flash Professional history. We're all familiar with what it means, but how does one lay this beast to rest?
I have but one solution:
1. Drag all Library items onto stage.
2. Open "Find and Replace" panel from application menu @ "Edit" > "Find and Replace"
3. Fill it out...
a. Search in: "Current Document"
b. For: "Font"
c. Select sought font, obviously.
5. Click "Find All"!
Okay, I lied; I have two:
1. Drag all Library items onto stage.
2. Use our good friend, "Movie Explorer"!
3. Figure it out.
