I wanted to layout some type using Gill Sans Std Bold, but I could only select Gill Sans Std. My only alternative was to use one of the faux-styles, but they don't look pretty. It's strange since the font styles are all selectable using the regular Flash type tools... Hmm, not bad but there’s one problem - it doesn’t let you select a font style.
