Try embedding your font in the simpkeviewer.fla text boxes. I copied and pasted your åäö into the " include special characters " diaglogue box in the embed box . It shows on publishing.

I am still a noob with flash. But i guess what you say is that I need to use flash 8 to edit the .fla file. Thanks for the tips, i will try there. If anyone else have time to explain it more in detail pls write ...

First make a copy of simpleviewer and stash it.Then  open simpleviewer.fla. >on the preloader frame ( or in the library f11) you will see 2 text boxes, click on those till you see the property toolbox open showing the text properties, select your font and click "embed", then insert your characters in the special char. box If they are in your font already, no need to use the special char thing. Select anti alias for reading, Don't change the other properties. Then publish .

on edit  flash 8 or flash 7.02

post back if you have any problems

Re: Special letters (ÅÄÖ) how to use in (gallery.xml)?

I have a similar problem, trying to use Polish characters (óęćą) in captions.
For the page (real html) I can define charset=iso-8859-2, but for the captions I apparently need to go through Flash.
It would be extremely useful to have the flash file adapted for different character sets, as many people are not able to do this themselves (and no need to all reinvent the wheel over and over again).
The explanation so far was a bit too short for me.
Any help would be much appreciated!  :)
