I agree 100% on this issue.
I have lost count as to how many times the missing font issue has come up in
projects.
It always stalls a project, sometimes for days (especially when one group of
developers are in a different time zone on the other side of the world).
Adobe/Macromedia need to
With respect to the legality, fonts may be likely candidates for piracy -
but there's nothing to stop people swapping system font folders. So given
that users can copy and swap font files, I really don't see the problem
introducing a utility in the IDE that collects the fonts for any given
project.

illegal to collect the fonts used in a FLA by using a utility in the Flash
