We have an app with multilingual support and we just use the default
system font. I haven't yet come across a character that Flash couldn't

a bit to make it talk unicode (set names=utf8 from memory)

Don't some device fonts (e.g., Arial on Windows?) include glyphs for

BTW, I just wanted to point out that the String type in AS is
Unicode, so all text in Flex apps is Unicode.

Google embedding fonts with Flex. But keep in mind that the entire
Unicode

Also Google about localizing flex apps.
