We here use FlashDevelop which allows us to pull in the Flex SDK into our Flash projects. So when we compile, we actually compile with the Flex SDK as apposed to the Flash compiler. With, Flex, you can use the Embed directive like: [Embed(source='arial.ttf', fontName = 'Arial', mimeType = 'application/x-font', unicodeRange="U+0041-U+005A")] private var Arial:Class; Hope that helps!

Thanks Sebastian. We’ve got it working here with embedded fonts, just thought we’d throw it out there for people in the most simple way possible.

Very nice tooltip imo, simplistic and easy to adjust. Already added a dropshadow and am currently trying to change the font to an embedded font in my swf.

Cheers!
