Adobe AIR Development

hi. i have no idea what changed or how this happened. i've been using a customized picker in my app for months now. somehow, for a reason i can't comprehend, the text in my picker is now garbled. all the text is changed. for example, the word "Kitchen Ringer 3" is now "iceniner3".

i have this picker in an external swf that is called by the main swf. if i double click the swf with the picker, on my desktop, it displays normally. but when its loaded into the main swf, its garbled!

?!

thanks.

What version of the OS are you using?
Does it look fine as an AIR app?

i'm using sdk. 1.1.1. i'm seeing this problem on the desktop while i'm testing an update for my app using flash pro cs5.5.

i used this post to help me skin my picker:

It turns out that my picker text is garbled when i use the CustomPickerListCellRendeder.as as described. More specifically, if I add:

this.label.embedFonts=true;

then my text will be gibberish (except for any numbers). So now I am unable to use a custom font for my picker. Bummer!
