[FLEX-21805] [TLF 2472526] Imported TextFlow no longer displays bold or italic text

• Type: Bug
• Status: Closed
• Priority: Major
• Resolution: Fixed
• Affects Version/s: Adobe Flex SDK Previous
• Component/s: Spark: FTETextField
• Environment: Affected OS(s): All OS Platforms; Language Found: English
• Assignee: Adobe JIRA
• Reporter: Adobe JIRA

Description

Found in trunk 4.0.0.11402

Steps to reproduce:
1. Compile and run attached MXML file.

Actual Results:
Note that the Spark RichText control doesnt display "Quick" in bold font or "Fox" in italic font.
This works for both Halo Text controls.

Expected Results:
Bold and italic should appear.

Workaround (if any):
Use a different default font in the HTML string. If i wrapped everything in a <font face="arial">...</font> block, it displayed as expected. Not sure if it is due to the switch to some "Times Roman" font (which I believe should be Times New Roman").
