I’m having trouble getting the Device Font to work on my flash. i publish it, export it and save it & still nothing. is there any other way to do this?

well not really. i have different fonts all over the site. the default font that comes up is arial. i’ve tried setting all of them to static text & still nothing. could it be something on my pc that is preventing me from devicing the font?
