XML and embedded fonts?

I load my xml in and output book1_title to a textbox and it works fine. When I tilt the text box the text won’t show up. I used embedded fonts with the html button selected but still doesn’t work. Any ideas? (Another thread mentioned something about toString but I don’t know how to do that.)

var myXML:XML = new XML();
myXML.ignoreWhite = true;
myXML.onLoad = processXML;

myXML.load("bookcase3.xml");

function processXML(success:Boolean):Void {
	if (success) {
		//displaying the root node name
		var RootNode:XMLNode = this.firstChild;
		book1_title = RootNode.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue;
	}
	else {
		trace ("Error loading XML file")
	}
}
