Here is another possible solution. It is translated from Spanish to English so it may take some piecing together. What I have found in researching these two solutions is that one not need to create an .fla and .swf file for the fonts and then via shared library add the shared fonts to each new .fla that requires these fonts. Basically a two step process. As well the sharedFont.swf can be stored in a directory outside of the directory containging the .swf's that share the font. One concern I encountered using Macromedia's approach which has worked fine, is that if I moved the sharedFont.swf to another directory the fonts would no longer load. Obviously this makes since. But if I changed the path within the .fla's that were sharing the font to say ../../sharedFont.swf the fonts would load in BUT they would reload into every new .swf that used them bascially making the SHARED part pointless and quickly wasting bandwidth. This is a big advantage to me as from my understanding it lets one change the directory of the sharedFont.swf if needed without having to go into say 150 .fla's and make changes to the linkage/properties etc. broD _______________________________________________ [email protected] To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
