Correct me if I am wrong, but don't font embed references have to
match the names exactly?
case sensitive as well? What is on the stage, the font name and
library item name?

I am just trying to make a little demo of how to embed a font, but
when I pull together code that has worked before into one simple
class, it doesn't show the text. It draws the outline of the text
field, but there is no text. When I comment out one line,
textField.embedFonts = true, it works, but not with the embedded font.
I've tried different fonts, and can't get any of them to work. Can
somebody spot what I'm doing wrong?
Cordially,
