Anti-aliasing with dynamic text field

I've checked out the documentation on this, as well as the forums, and I can't
seem to find someone who has a similar problem. I just started delving into
Flash MX recently, so I could be simply missing something.

My flash pulls text from a file into a dynamic text field. I set this text
field as Aliased, but when I Test the movie, as well as Export it, it doesn't
show up anti-aliased.

Static text fields work fine, however. Am I missing something, or is this
true?

Thanks,
Nate

Well, you can delete this post, I didnt' realize the forums search function
didn't search the entire forums. Found to embed the font in the file by
selecting Character... and then selecting the letters/symbols I wanted to
include.

I take it back. While I was loading the text from a file, it seemed to be ok,
but I am now loading it through FlashVars and the query string.

I have embedded the characters I need, and selected Alias Text. Both of which
don't seem to have any effect on the Anti-Aliasing of the dynamic text. Arg!

I can help you. What font are you anti-aliasing?
