Hello,

Quick question please: If I choose to use a font (Century Gothic) in a movie, is this font exported in the static text fields as part of the movie? If a visitor to the site doesn’t have the font installed on his machine, would he see a default font, or does Flash export the outlines?

I understand you have to specifically embed fonts in dynamic text fields but I’m not sure if this happens automatically for static text. I have no wish to break apart these fields.

Thanks in advance  
Karen

If you use static text then there’s no need to embed the font because flash will export the outlines, that’s correct.
