Font missing error when opening in Flash MX

[CodingIsFun]

Hello again...

I am having an issue when I open up an existing .fla file in Flash MX. It tells me that I am missing a specific font type and tells me it will let me choose a new font or use the default. Is there anyway to load new fonts, so I don't get this error. If there is how do I go about this?

Thanks in advance.

if you received the .fla from someone else then it is simply telling you that you do not have that font installed on your computer. in that case, if possible, you should get the font and drop it in your fonts folder. otherwise more details about your computer would be nice...

are you on a Mac or Windows machine?
are you using a font management tool? (i.e. Extensis Suitcase?
