Re: FLASH: fonts - how to use clientside fonts

No the shape is included in the Flash swf file whether or not you

specify DeviceFont in the HTML code. Note. Devicefont only works with 32

bit Windows operating systems, only if the exact font is installed on

the users system and even then works quite poorly from Flash in my

opinion. My advice is to just say no to DeviceFont.
