hello all,

i’m loading an external xml file into my main movie and formatting it with embedded fonts. everything works great, dashes , parenthesis, commas, except for one thing. flash will not embed an apostrophe, instead of an apostrophe i get the following: &apos. so if i were to write inhabitant’s in my xml document, when the flash file is published i get inhabitant’s.

im using a standard font, gill sans MT, that i know has an apostrophe.

any ideas why?
