Typekit adds support for Adobe AIR 2.5

Today, Adobe released AIR 2.5, which includes support for @font-face.  We’ve been anticipating this release, working with Adobe engineers to ensure Typekit and AIR work together in the best way possible, and we’re excited to announce that we’ve added support for AIR 2.5 to Typekit.  This brings Typekit to yet another platform, allowing developers to include rich typography in the web apps they create with AIR.  We can’t wait to see how Typekit gets put to use in this new context.

Using Typekit in an HTML-based AIR app is simple: just define an within the top-level HTML content that sets sandboxRoot to one of the domains in your kit:

Here’s an example:

	 	 

Then, you can use Typekit as usual in your AIR app’s HTML files:


  
    Sample AIR App
    http://use.typekit.com/xxxxxxx.js
    try{Typekit.load();}catch(e){}
  
  
    Hello world!
  

As always, we’d love to hear about the AIR apps you develop using Typekit. Let us know!
