Roger, thanks for the suggestions. Yes, I had found and been playing
with the embedded font list used by by the Flex UI controls; and I've
also been using the lower level TextField API's directly. So far, I've
had no luck at all in getting dynamically loaded fonts to be
recognized.

This is certainly consistent with everything I've found
experiementally with Flex 1.5. And in Flex 2.0 alpha I'm stopped by
the following error when trying to load a child SWF, if it has an
embedded font in it:
TypeError: Error #1009: null has no properties.
at mx.managers::SystemManager/set fontList()
at _LoadChild_FlexInit$/init()
at mx.managers::SystemManager/SystemManager$71
$private::handleFrameEnd()
I'm assuming this is a bug that will eventually be fixed, but what
will the final behavior be? Will the same issue I'm seeing in Flex
1.5 -- fonts in child application domains are not accessible to the
application --remain in Flex 2.0? And if so, is there any work-around?
