Major Dev Problem. I am a Creative Designer, and I have many fonts available to me that come from print advertising, that need to sometimes be used in Flash. I have the fonts on my local machine, but sometimes the Developer doesn’t. I would like to “learn” a way to access embedded font’s through an external swf file, that would be accessible through the css file and the external text file… Possible?
