Example
The following example creates two text fields, called first_txt and second_txt. The white
space is removed from the second text field. Add the following ActionScript to your FLA or
ActionScript file:
var my_str:String = "Hello\tWorld\nHow are you?\t\t\tEnd";
this.createTextField("first_txt", this.getNextHighestDepth(), 10, 10, 160,
120);
first_txt.html = true;
first_txt.multiline = true;
first_txt.wordWrap = true;
first_txt.condenseWhite = false;
first_txt.border = true;
first_txt.htmlText = my_str;
this.createTextField("second_txt", this.getNextHighestDepth(), 180, 10,
160, 120);
second_txt.html = true;
second_txt.multiline = true;
second_txt.wordWrap = true;
second_txt.condenseWhite = true;
second_txt.border = true;
second_txt.htmlText = my_str;

html (TextField.html property)
embedFonts (TextField.embedFonts property)
public embedFonts : Boolean
A Boolean value that specifies whether to render the text using embedded font outlines. If the
value is
true, Flash Lite renders the text field using embedded font outlines. If the value is
false, Flash Lite renders the text field using device fonts.
If you set
embedFonts to true for a text field, you must specify a font for that text using the
font property of a TextFormat object applied to the text field. If the specified font does not
exist in the library (with the corresponding linkage identifier), the text is not displayed.
Note: This property is not supported for Arabic, Hebrew, and Thai.
Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Lite 2.0
