font question..

I'm writing an application that needs to dynamically load fonts. I know that I can load them if I make each font its own .swf file. However, the problem I have is I don't know what fonts they will be using. And since I don't know what fonts they will be using, I can't just *make a .swf for the fonts they use*.

For example, lets say client A logs in and uses the flash application to create a document for print and they want to use a specific font (say something uncommon like Accenic 8 or something) that they previously had uploaded to their fonts folder. But there is no .swf for it (obviously), so they can't load it into the flash application.

I can get their fonts list to load in a dropdown but I can't figure out how to load a font dynamically.

Is there a way to create a font .swf with another .swf file? Or does anyone know of another way to load the font on the fly without knowing the font that is going to be used?

Sorry if this is confusing.. if you need more info i can provide it!

Thanks
