The text is from a database and in bulgarian - cyrillic. The only solution I've found so far is that the text loads as long as it is hardwritten into the file and not taken from the database and only if the php file is saved in UTF-8 charset. I cannot change the charset of the database on my hosting server so I'm still looking for a way round this problem. I have the same problem with a php response loading into a dynamic text field.

External font files was definitely the way I was leaning. There seem to be a lot of variations on the implementation but you've given me a great starting point. Flash 10 looks like it's going to include a lot of improvements in the handling of text and localization but until then, external font swfs seem like the way to go. Thank you both, Glenn Jeff and Kelvin,
