One of my projects requires the use of some specific dingbat symbols in the middle of text. These symbols are custom artwork which I have in a vector format. I can't just put them in as <img> tags in an HTML text field, because you can't do inline images in HTML in Flash.

The site uses one font, and three weights of it -- normal, bold, and italic. I asked a friend who is a type designer to insert these symbols into the fonts and export them back out as TTF files. Worked great, except for one weird quirk. With one of the fonts installed at a time, they work fine. With them all installed, they take on each other's characteristics somewhat randomly in Flash -- normal will be bold, bold will be italic, italic will be normal -- what they do seems to depend on the order in which they're installed or something. This is on Mac.

So: I'd like to provide someone with the original fonts, the revised fonts, and the symbol artwork and get a set of fonts back which work correctly in the Flash 8 IDE on OS X. In exchange I can pay some fair amount of money or provide an equivalent favor of some kind. Anyone up for it?

thanks,
-josh
