Alright, I just installed firefox 1.0-pre2, and now the fonts in my flash plugin are really screwy. How can I fix this? I think that it is simply pointint to the wrong font (it's one of the novelty fonts in the 6000 font archive). _________________ Check out my...

you can have it emerging the "corefonts" packet... but in my case the problem remains _________________ Gentoo user since 2004.

@enigma_0Z
can you make a screenshot? also, can you go to www.gazzetta.it and tell me if you see wrong fonts? |

The website that you said, the text wasn't part of the flash... try these websites instead:
http://www.homestarrunner.com (look at the text at the bottom, it should be arial)
http://www.purevolume.com/relientk (look at the font in the player on the right, also you should be able to do any artist, I just picked Relient K)
And uhh, I could make all the screenshots that I wanted, but I don't have anywhere on the internet to upload & hotlink them...
Actually, I saw something called ImageShack. anyone know what that's all about? _________________ Check out my...

I have a similar problem, except that I have missing text altogether. For example, on the homestarrunner.com site, there's no text at the bottom. I think it's the result of a bitmap font taking over for the ttf, but I don't really know how to fix it aside from pulling all of my fontpaths and starting from scratch. |
