Hey,

I’ve recieved fonts in OpenType from a guy that are used in a flash file. He is working on Mac/Flash, and I am working on PC/Flash CS3. He sent the fonts, around 20 different types of TradeGothic, I installed them on my Vista machine, but when I open Flash I can only see around 12 of these 20 fonts in the droplist. I then tried Photoshop and in Photoshop I can see all fonts, I chose “Trade Gothic” in photoshop and then Bold Condensed without any problem.

So I tried installing the fonts on a mac os x, and opened Flash and I can see use all fonts without any problem.

What’s wrong with Vista/Flash CS3 ?!
