have you tried doing what i did and using the actual font name as the .font property rather than the linkage class name?

it's removing the text because it can't find the font

  wotcha

  i have a quick query about embedded fonts.

  I thought that when you used them in the movie, that you should call
  them by the Class name in the linkage identifier however when I try
  to do this, my text disappears (i have embedFonts set to true and
  I've triple checked the names), however when i use the font's
  original name, export, close the fonts and then open the swf,
  everything works as it should.

Was I originally wrong or is there something screwy going on with this?

  examples:

  original font: Helvetica 75 Bold
  Linkage class name: Helvetica75Bold
  Name used as .font property: "Helvetica75Bold" // causes text to
  disappear
  Name used as .font property: "Helvetica 75 Bold" // causes text to
  reappear

  original font: Helvetica with B selected
  Linkage class name: HelveticaBold
Name used as .font property: "HelveticaBold" // causes text to disappear
  Name used as .font property: "Helvetica" // causes text to reappear

  hope you can help because this doesn't seem right to me.

  thanks
  a
