    Hi there! I still can't solve the problem with cyrillic symbols in Title and Description. I have no Flash CS, so I have downloaded "font.swf" from web, then put it on site and changed parameters in xml to

    fontFile = "/fonts.swf"
    imageInfoTitleFont = "Arial"
    imageInfoDescriptionFont = "Arial"

    (i need Arial font or something like this to work)

    But no symbols in Title ... Just EMPTY title. Back to defaults and see only english letters, no cyrillics.

    Two questions:

    1) What code page we need to use for 100% compatibility? UTF-8?
    2) Where i can get 'font.swf' with cyr font (fonts)?

    Help dot
    Thanx a lot!

    This is example

    No Title on black line ...

    font = 'arial'
    ('arial cyr' does not work too)

    fonts.swf contains 'Arial Cyr' (i hope so)

    Hi,

    utf-8 does not contain cyrillic symbols,
    please use utf-16 because it does so.

    I don't know, if the monoslideshow.swf can parse utf-18 coded xml-files.

    Good luck,

    Oops. Why it doesn't? Look at this page, central flash container shows titles and images, all titles in UTF-8 and it's cyrillic!

    Oh sorry, utf-8 is for all latin-based characters, cyrillic is greek-based and contains to utf-8 also...

    Wont it also show title and description, if you don't set a special font?
    Is title and description a field in a database?
    Is there a url where we can look?

    I think the problem with fonts that included in Package by default (they are western). But i can't understand why "fonts.swf" feature did not work. I'll dig again.

    You can check out XML by this link. Looks like it's good. But fonts ...

    oops.. wrong url. now is correct!

    Still not found any solution. Dear Monokai, we need your support!

    Have you tried just specifying utf-16? It's easily done and can do no harm, doesn't it?
    Don't know if it helps you, but our German Ä Ö Ü ß etc. vanish from my slidehhows as soon as I use Dreamweaver to edit the xml (don't know why). As long as I use Notepad++, everything works.

    And now it works. Using SWFMill, UTF-8 and some "good words" ...

    I've also had better results with SWFMill than with the Flash IDE. Glad to hear it works!

    50/50 ... Sometimes IE 7.0 crashes out with exception. I have two configs - with 'fonts.swf' and without. 'fonts' crashes with every 2-3 loading, without fonts - stable work.

    I don't know what happens.

    Now running without cyrillic symbols again :(
