my font refers to a Font
symbol in the library, with linkage set to
my font.
var my_fmt:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
my_fmt.font = "my font";
this.createTextField("my_txt", this.getNextHighestDepth(), 10, 10, 160, 120);
my_txt.wordWrap = true;
my_txt.embedFonts = true;
my_txt.text = "Hello world";
my_txt.setTextFormat(my_fmt);
my_txt._rotation = 45;
