I use Dynamic text to import text from a file.

This is my problem:

See, **(1)** is the Skew tool… When i use that tool, my dynamic text  
isn’t showed anymore when i test or publish the movie.  
The same happens when i use the Rotate tool. This is solved by using the “Include entire font outline” […] **(2)** button.

But i still can’t use the Skew.  
I want this to work for me:
