Hiya,

There are a few examples out there on how to embed fonts into your AS3 file, [like here](http://gotoandlearn.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4698). This ensures that the user get teh correct font.

However, (like i ask in the post in the link), i can only get this to work with aliased fonts. I need device-fonts, and after alot of testing, i still cant figure out how i can do that.

Anyone :h:
