Hi all, How do I hide font sample characters I entered in the flash sifr.fla to make my font.swf file? I entered "I" and now "I" shows up behind the text I'm replacing in the background.

I'm using SIFR version 436 and have found that when moving around my site it is taking an age for the page to load in any browser but Firefox 3.5.7.

I played around with charset options to specifiy the javascript file i'm...
