What i have is a basic intro page using the “miniml” fonts. I have designed it in Flash MX. I then used Flash to Publish this .swf to an HTML page. However, I forget how to embed non system fonts into a swf. When a user views this page the fonts get replaced with a system font on their system…

I hope that helps clarify things a bit. Thanks for the help.

Click on your text box…

Open the properties window (CTRL+F3 in windows).

There is a button there that says “Character…” This allows you to embed font outlines for characters in your text box.

Be aware, Doing this with pixel fonts sometimes distorats them.

Note: Make sure your text box is on exact pixel (in the property window, check the X and Y coors of your textbox and make sure it is not on a decimal, but on a whole number).
