Using <b> tags in Html text

Hi, I have a textField set with Times font, embedded the font but the bold text does not display:

Actionscript Code:

myTextField.htmlText = "Regular <b>bold</b> <i>italic</i>"

Displays:

Regular bold italic

however, when I set the Field to use device fonts, it works:

Regular bold italic

Is there a way of getting this to work without using device fonts?

Don't Embed Font.

Anyone else?

Thanks fruitbeard, I have embedded the variations in the Library. Also I have tried the old trick of having a bold textField offstage
