Clearly this thread has been dead for a while with no replies... just to mention that I'm seeing the same problem with completely a different font and newer versions of flex and the player. Characters on the same line rendering at different sizes. Makes the text look a mess. Using the same font, style and text in a Classic text area looks correct both in ide and swf. - both tests with readonly/non-editable objects. My problem in relation to Flex is that my app is Spark and requires TLF CFF embedding. So, resurrecting the thread in the hope that the original poster, or anyone, has anything to share towards a solution. Thanks
