Input boxes/embeded fonts?

Hi there -
when i create a textbox and make it of the type input they are not visible on my animation when i preview it.

however - when i embed the font they are visible on the box i embed it in. How do i fix this?

Im not using any special font - im using something like verdana.

I shouldn’t have to embed for every textbox, tripling the size of my movie.

Thanks for the help.
