Finally figured out how to make font symbols (with linkage turned on)
include foreign character sets.

The instructions outlined here:

do actually work given you take into account two crucial pieces of
info regarding BUGS IN FLASH.

The two pieces of crucial info that solved the issue for me are these:

1) If there is more than one font symbol in the library Flash will not
add foreign character sets to any of the fonts. That means creating
one swf per font symbol.

2) If a font symbol (with linkage turned on) uses the exact same font
that is embedded in a text field in the same swf, all non-Roman
characters stop getting exported.

For example: text field 1 has the font Tahoma set to Korean characters
embedded. Export, it works fine. Now, set a font symbol in the library
(with linkage turned on) to use Tahoma. Export, no non-Roman
characters get exported.

I'll eventually report this to Adobe but I'd be happy if someone beat me to it.
