Font not showing up in Flash CS3!

jsheldon

I am having a problem with a font not showing up in the font list in Flash CS3. Most of the fonts show up correctly, but the one I want to use is not in the list. It is a Postscript Type 1 file and I am working on a Mac (OSX).

Anybody have any idea why it’s not there? I googled, but couldn’t find a solution.

Thanks for your help.

Does it show up in other CS3 apps? What about other Mac OS X apps like TextEdit?

Yes, the font shows up in all of the other CS3 apps and text edit. I am guessing it has something to do with it being a postscript type 1. Is there any way to convert that?

im having this problem right now, in every other program i can see this font, but flash refers to just one of the fonts in the font suitcase and puts a t in front of the name... very strange - would love to hear if any one has a solution for this?
