I know the offstage technique but what I want is to load an external swf with the specific font in it. Then use that font in all other swfs. You could do this in as2 by loading in a swf that had a shared library font in it. Bit of a hack but it worked.

I cant quite believe Adobe has not addressed this in cs3 as fonts do add a huge amount to file sizes. There has got to be a fix for this surely...

Any more ideas...

Cheers

Define 2 dynamic text field off stage (one for each font) and define the
character range there.
These characters should now be available to all text fields in the .swf
*Should* work, but with Flash and font you never know :(

Offstage will do it.

So will exporting in a text field within a MovieClip symbol in the
library, providing that MovieClip symbol is marked for export in first
frame.
