Embedding Dynamic Text adds 142kb

[gamist]

I'm adjusting the alpha levels to a dynamic text box and it only works when the text is embedded. The problem is the size of the swf. When it is embedded it goes from 1kb to 142kb. Are there any other solutions to this?

You could embed just a subset of characters (ie: only numbers, or capitals) if you don't need the full character set...

Thanks. That got it down to 8kb. I love easy solutions.
