Re: FLASH: IE 5 and unrelated Font Question

[Dorian Nisinson]

Hi Jefferis,

	Fonts are embedded in your swf file so it doesn't matter what fonts a

viewer has on their computer. Actually, only the outlines of the letters

you actually used are embedded so this keeps file size down. 

	The only time installed fonts matter is if you are working on a fla

file on different computers or as part of a team. Work on the fla

requires that all fonts used in the fla be installed on the computer.

This is true for both Flash 3 and Flash 4.
