JiFR Text Replacement

What is JiFR?

JiFR is an alternative for sIFR. There are a lot of differences between the two libraries, but I'll list the most important here.

  • You can use multiple fonts in a text that you want to JiFR
  • Fonts are in separate swf-files to make it very easy to upgrade JiFR
  • You can split the fonts into multiple swf-files to make it more easy to re-use fonts, but if you insist it it also possible to embed all fonts in a single swf-file.
  • JiFR allows YOU to specify the font-size so you won't end up with every header or menu-item in a different size.
  • JiFR is very flexible, it allows you to configure a lot of things, but to keep it simple you can stick to the defaults most of the time.
  • JiFR supports basic CSS & HTML usage. This allows you to use CSS to use different colors, fonts, etc in JiFR-ed content Do note that css support in Flash is far from perfect, it chokes on a lot of stuff, from comments to an empty class definition.
