I am using the scroll component and I want to know if I can embed a custom typeface into the text field that will work for any viewer. It is a bitmap face that I would like to use. When I publish my current flash movie it plays fine on my machine and any other machine with the specific face installed and active. I understand the reason why it does not work on other machines.

Is there a fix to the text being rendered as html? Why does flash not publish the properties of the typeface with the movie?

Thanks,  
Bryan
