This: internal class BaseTextLayoutImporter extends ConverterBase implements ITextImporter { private var _ns:Namespace; // namespace of expected in imported/exported content private var _textFlowNamespace:Namespace; // namespace of the TextFlow element against which the namespaces of the following elements are validated public function BaseTextLayoutImporter(nsValue:Namespace, config:ImportExportConfiguration) { _ns = nsValue; _config = config; } public function get ns(): Namespace { return _ns; } public class TextLayoutImporter extends BaseTextLayoutImporter implements ITextLayoutImporter { public function TextLayoutImporter() { super(new Namespace("flow", "http://ns.adobe.com/textLayout/2008"), defaultConfiguration); } > Are there any occurrences of two colons "::" in the source file? With the exception of CONFIG::debug, this is it: var beginArrayChild:XML = xmlTree..*::BeginMissingElements[0]; var endArrayChild:XML = xmlTree..*::EndMissingElements[0]; var textLayoutMarkup:XML = xmlTree..*::TextFlow[0]; Harbs
