Greetings, I would like to create a dynamic flash file where i can send it a text variable and it displays the text in the flash animation. The problem is that I would like to use a specific font and need to get around the chance that the end-user doesnt have the font. The only solution i can think of is creating the alphabet of the font converted to curves and make each letter an object, then using script, display the text string. Is this possible? any help would be appreciated.Thanx

Dear Dreamy,
I haven't bothered with Flash for a bit, but I was under the impression that it embedded fonts when you output an .swf from your .fla - if that's the case, you wouldn't need to be concerned about someone having the font on their system.
