I'm doing some simple css in flash, I was wondering if it is possible to embed fonts when using css.

hello jacobaa, welcome to dt.

hmmm, interesting. not tried this but here's what the w3c says:

@font-face {
src: local("Palatino"),
local("Times New Roman"),
local("New York"),
local("Utopia"),
url("http://somewhere/free/font");
font-family: serif;
font-weight: 100, 200, 300, 400, 500;
font-style: normal;
font-variant: normal;
font-size: all
}

check it out for yourself and let us know how you get on. i think what they're trying to get accross in the above code is that you've got licencing issues here so don't sell this to a client as you'll be paying for it later.

Afaik, support for @font-face is still pretty pathetic across the full range of modern browsers despite being part of the CSS2 spec.
