So, I am finally cracking my nuckles and (after about six weeks of reading posts
and going through tutorials getting down to the business of building something I
have two questions

Fonts - In the font menu is the option "Use Owners font" I am assuming that this
is like the object/stack structure with the reference going up (or down) the
branches until it reaches ? Where is the first referencing of the font
attribute?  I can specify any of the fonts that are on my system but since this
is an application that is going to be distributed over all Mac/Win.Linux systems
I should probably stick to? If this were web design I could use list
"Helevetica, Arial, sans-serif", is this handled in the Profile Manager (the one
tutorial I have yet to do)?

Quicktime
I can use quicktime effects and display movies in cards. I the quick time
functionality embedded in the distributed application or am I going to have to
ensure that the user has Quicktime installed on their system?

many thanks, FDYocum
