Hey all.

So, I’ve been trying every method I could find to embed fonts in flash 8, and none of them are working. I’ve NEVER had a problem embedding fonts with any other version of flash, you just clicked ‘embed font’ and it worked. In flash 8, I had to create a library item, tell it to export in frame one – all this, howcome? It’s still not showing up on machines that do not have this obscure font on their machine.

Am I missing something?

thanks!
