Might be easier to use an Glyphs palette powered application to pick the glyphs you need, and then export them as images to use in Flash. Not a 'pretty' solution, but it should work.

A survey of free math fonts (for TeX and LaTeX) can be found here.

A more recent font is MnSymbol, that accompanies Minion Pro. The type1 and Open Type fonts are here; if you look at the file MnSymbol.pdf, you will see that there are probably more symbols than you will ever need.

if you want good mathematical typesetting, I'd suggest not only looking at the fonts for LaTeX but actually using real LaTeX, and then pulling the outlines of your entire equations into flash. You can write formulas simply (with a standard math-like syntax) and not have to worry about spacing, superscripts, and so on. It becomes all the more important if you use matrices or large integral symbols and so on.

A more main-stream alternative may be Office 2007 and the Cambria Math font.

If you're using a Mac, there's a nice add-on to LaTeX that makes it easy to typeset a single equation, then import it into another Mac program as a PDF file:

LaTeX Equation Editor

I believe there's another program called LaTeXit, which is similar and perhaps better. I don't use a Mac, so this information is based on what others have told me.

LaTeXit comes with MacTeX-2007. You typeset your equation in LaTeXit, then select, drag and dropt it into your application. In Adobe Illustrator, I get a fully scalable object. In Word or PowerPoint, it is just a picture.
