i've not used setStyle with a combo box... but i have had some
experience with embedding fonts. I'm not saying this is the best
practice, but it is one that has worked for me in the past. remove the
embedFonts line. somewhere on the stage create a dynamic text field,
set to the font you want. embed the glyphs you want, and use that font
for the combobox.

Keith,
Thanks, but this didn't work. Since we will always be doing our final
compile on a mac and embedding takes place at compile time checking the
version of the machine wouldn't really make a difference. I think we may
just end up building our own combo box.
