In fact the font that is used is installed now. If I ad a new textfield on a
frame and use the font Gill Sans it is shown correctly. But the older Gill
Sans - textfields (they already exist before I installed Gill Sans) in the
fla-File didn't update themselfs.and a substitude is shown. When selecting
the old text without typing new text Flash tells that Gill Sans is used in
the field but it appears the substitute. Confusing ....?
