I'll add my name to that list - but does AS3 improve things any? Not
really played with embedding fonts in AS3 - surely we may be able to do
some bytecode trickery like those talented chaps are doing with sound?

Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] finding out which fonts are
embeddedinaswfatruntime?
Hi,
I actually don't know how to do it, but i just wanted to say that i
think is time for Adobe to improve A LOT everything related
to shared
fonts.
Very much agreed. We've reached the situation where we tried
every single variation on the shared font, and none of them
did what we needed, so we've had to embed the font
information in every one of our movies. The key feature that
we lacked was the ability to create a new textfield using the
shared font in a clean and easy way. (The closest we got to
it was to embed a shared movieclip that included a textfield
with the font embedded; unfortunately even this didn't work
because of the lag in loading these movies). Also, the
ability to use a font from a movie loaded with attachMovie in
the parent movie.
