Hi guys,

Yesterday, I embedded a font in my library at size 172pt (big I know, but that’s missing the point here). Everything was working fine–I was using it on a dynamic text field created in ActionScript.

This morning, I came in to find my text suddenly wasn’t working. Eventually I narrowed it down to the text format I was using. It appears that embedding a font at that size did **not** work, but if I embed a font at a small size (mine was 11pt) and then define a larger size in AS, it does work!

Is there any documentation of this?
