Hi Kirupaeans,  
I’m using a dynamic text field to display CSS-formatted html. My question: can I embed the font for this text field? When I try to embed the font outlines (via the “character…” button), nothing shows up when I run the swf.  
Does anyone know if this is simply not allowed with html text fields, or is there a way around it? Note that using the “alias” button doesn’t affect the results.  
In other words, on one part of my design I have text in a static field, and on rendering it appears anti-aliased, and frankly, looks nicer. Now on the html-dynamic field, it’s aliased and looks worse.  
What’s the story? Thanks in advance!
