So.. basically... my authoring machine needs the font, which is fairly
obvious..

But as soon as I embed the movie into the HTML page, it's there, regardless
if the viewing computer has the font or not....

correct?

Thanks :)

The "funky" font WILL NOT show up in the FLA file if it is not installed.
The "funky" font WILL show up in the exported movie SWF file.

The bottom line is, your authoring machine needs the fonts
unless you break apart the text and then it becomes an art element.
much like Create Outlines does in Illustrator.
