From previous reading, if the embedded font has the same name plus the
asterisk, when the font is missing on another machine Director will
automatically look for the embedded one that matches and use it instead.

I apologize if this topic has been already covered extensively.
I have used embedded fonts successfully before, but MacOS X is now in
the equation and there seems to be more "imponderables" to deal with.
Of course, Director 8.5.1 is running in Classic Mode. Fonts can be

Can anyone shed light on the expected date rate(s) for MPEG4, too? It's
somewhat new to the QuickTime codec stable and there isn't a lot of
information about what to expect or what the optimal settings range
would be for multimedia or web streaming.

I'm sorry, I just re-read you message. You're using MPEG, not Animation
for compression. Excuse my ramblings on irrelevant matters. I agree
with your choice of MPEG, but you still may want to use QuickTime for
playback in your projector.
