i'm trying to use the font "adobe caslon" in flash, but it's not showing up in the list of available fonts. "adobe caslon pro" shows up, but i don't want that one!
does flash have trouble with postscript fonts? if so, is there a workaround for this?

find the font in your Fonts folder, double-click, and check the official name for it.

Flash is a little shotty sometimes for missing fonts. Helvetica Neue doesn't show up Flash for me... and as of yet, I haven't been able to figure out what the friggin' problem is.

Me too, sometimes i find that Flash doenst want to show some fonts.
Other times, the missing font appear not in alphebetical order, but at the extream top or bottom of the font menu. Double check the opt and bottom, see if the font is stashed there.

if you got OpenType, it won't work in flash.
