I have checekd this extensively and these are my findigs on the shortcomings of Flash MX support for Unicode:

Don't use the variable method. Use the object method:

Yes. Create a new movie with a preloader.

On the preloader event, load your main movie.

It works only if you use device fonts (i.e. _serif) and you set the text box not to use embeded fonts.

You also need to set the text using the text object instead of a variable:

At the top of the file add a header like this:
\\!--UTF-8

to let flash know that it is a UTF-8 encoded...

Yet another frustrating thing in the current support for Unicode in Flash MX:

I have developed a shopping cart that works with Authorize.net.

It uses Flash 5.0 as the front-end (much easier now with all the GUI components) and Perl 5 as the middleware.

Big problem....

If you use Unicode characters (let's say Greek) on a static field, these display OK on the SWF.

But if you set the text field to Dynamic and select "Embed Font Outlines" - All...
