Hi there, Have you tried restarting FLASH and possibly rebooting your PC. ---

Sometimes windows requires that you go into the C:\Windows\Fonts folder and double clicking on the font file first. I dunno why, but I have to do it for some of my fonts. ---

I remember a download at macromedia that I stupidly passed up about adding fonts to flash and I can’t seem to get back there, does this ring a bell to anyone?
