Hi all, I just purchased a Font For Flash (FFF Business), and for some reason, Flash has designated the font a “system default font”. Basically, it turns whatever I select into Helvetica or something. Any ideas as to what could be doing this? BTW, it has also done this with a free pixel font I downloaded. Other pixel fonts have not been converted to system default. got me.

thanks
