• My International Characters don't show up?

  The Flash header and accompanying SWF files default to the English language Character sets.

  To include international character sets by default, would drastically increase the file size of the flash files. In most cases, we would only need to embed one character set to meet your specific needs. The source files for all flash elements are included with the template, and located in the same folder as their counterpart SWF file. You can edit using Macromedia Flash MX/2004 or 8 and embed the character set yourself, or contact our design team and we will provide an updated set of files with the character set of your choice from the list below. You can select one, two or even all of these character sets if you like. Just keep in mind, each character set will add about 10KB to the flash movies.

  We can modify the Flash files for you, to display International Character sets for:
   

  Basic Latin Japanese Kana Japanese Kanji Japanese (All) Basic Hangul Hangul (All)

  Traditional Chinese Simplified Chinese Chinese (All) Thai Devanagari Hebrew Arabic

  Latin I Latin Ext A Latin Ext B Latin Ext Addn'l Greek Cyrillic Armenian

  If you do not see a Character set for your specific language you/we can HARD CODE the text with Characters directly into the flash files. The flash files would no longer use external text sources, but they would display the character set exactly as required.

   

• How do I change the 'background' image?
  • Please contact our design team on this question. Each template design is unique in terms of the background images. Some are loaded from the flash header, and changeable, others require the source graphic file be modified.
