    Description

      Steps to reproduce:
      1. Install GB18030 Support Package(English Version) from http://www.microsoft.com/china/windows2000/downloads/18030.mspx
      2. Compile and run attached MXML file (test.mxml).
      WARNING:

      • You may have to change the path to the embedded font according to your windows installation.
      • The compilation is VERY long, probably because of the 12MB font to embed.

      Actual Results:

      • In Flash Player 10.0: 2 characters are missing see textWith10.0.png
      • In Flash Player 10.1: 5 characters are missing see textWith10.1.png

      Expected Results: Since the font is installed on the OS, the text should render without having to embed it the Flex application.
