Embedded fonts not displaying correctly

I've attached 2 screenshots. The first shows the flash stage at its default size - as you can see my font is all distorted and weird looking but when you zoom in (image 2) it's exactly like it should be. What would make it look like this when the stage hasn't been zoomed out or anything, it's just from pressing cmd and enter from flash?

I embedded it by putting it into the fla's library.

ActionScript

what are you doing to scale the movieclip that contains your text when you're not zooming?

p.s. adding a font to the library is only the first of several steps that are needed to embed that font in a textfield.

I'm not doing anything to scale the movieClip. I press CMD and enter and thats what comes out. When I CMD + I zoom in and thats the second picture.

Regarding font embedding, I've enabled linkage and created a new class of it in my AS3 class file. Is there anything else I should do?

Oh..may be worth mentioning, all the text is actually Label components.

remove the label component from your library and use static text. test. any problems?
