Hi jon,
Unfortunately there is no way we can use non-embedded fonts.
It's a game after all, with much attention paid on graphics,
and we don't want to have it stuffed with Arial or Times New Roman text. :)
Do you believe there will be a erforamce issue with embedded fonts?
Do you have any real life example for a game you have developed or seen?
Thanks,
Dimitrios

First thought for performance considerations - don't use embedded
fonts. That's a performance hit right there. Flash uses the native
system rendering to get the curve information for non-embedded fonts,
rather than rendering it itself - that comes with it's own set of
problems of course.
good luck.
