IIRC, I was pretty happy when I got it to work, not only because I have only limited knowledge in Flash, but also because it's quite difficult to correctly scale the text in different browsers. But I can give it a try (i.e. re-read the docs and the code on my site), if you want. As I said, it's been quite some time since I looked at it. OTOH, they improved the docs and provide some tests for sIFR, so that should help
So ... since it is not possible to dynamically include fonts into the Flash files, we need to bundle a handful .swf files with the plugin. Thus, first of all, we need fonts. Besided looking good, these fonts should: be free to use (copyright!), include as many special chars as possible (umlauts, punctuation and stuff), be compatible with Flash (don't know if Flash takes only .ttf or what?), ...
Please go ahead and suggest fonts.
Gerrit's collection might be a good starting point, at least for all who know German. After we've collected enough, I'll leave it to our design gurus to choose the best
