How do you get this to work on a TextField already placed on the stage (in the actual Flash Pro IDE)? Do you need to setup the properties of the TextField in any special way? Embed all the font family "styles" (and if so, how do you refer to all of them on a TextField? the dropdown menu only lets you pick one).

Maybe I didn't understand what this library was for. Is it intended to be use on HTML outside of Flash?
