I'm not sure I understand your setup. Is the font being embedded properly but you just can't use it? You can look at the generated code to see if the font is being embedded. For UITextField, you might want to use setStyle instead of textFormat to set fontFamily.

My question is, what's the best way to use fonts from an actionscript based Flash component, in a uiComponent shell. I tried using a UITextField in my component and using the textFormat class to set my fontFamily, which worked, however, when I change the values, the font's would revert to being not embedded, no matter if i set the textFormat on the uiTextField after the change, again. I noticed the Font. top level class is not available to the flex SDK. Any help, would be greatly appreciated. My textfields are all dynamic, that show up around my circle... Thanks community.
