If you’re embedding the font in the SWF in which it will be used, you should just drop the <Import> tag. The <Import url="..."/> part is a hack that is only required if you’re trying to do dynamic font loading in Flash 8 or lower — that is if you’re trying to create a SWF font that can be loaded in at runtime. I don’t understand why it works either, but I’m not surprised to hear that it causes problems in some cases.
