Hi,  
I’m trying to embed fonts in a List component using CS3 with AS2.  
I set the embedFonts attribute of my component to true.  
Then I created a Library font item with the Arial font and when I publish my swf, the list is empty. However, if I pick \_sans font from the properties of the Library font item, the list gets populated.  
This would be fine except I need to publish latin characters like é, ç and ã, which apparently are not being embeded.

Any one has any ideas?

I tried the Adobe documentation but it wasn’t clear.

thanks in advance

regards

RF
