From my experience and listening to the experiences of a few others, it
seems you might be best off ignoring Font Symbols - it seems there are a few issues with them. Rather, put a text field on stage for each font and font style you need (bold and normal need separate text fields) and embed the fonts on those text fields. To make this more convenient if you have several .swfs that need these embedded fonts, drop the text fields into a movie clip and put that in a shared library.

Hello, Flash seems to be particularly unfriendly when working with Polish text. If I create a font symbol, choose not to export it in the linkage properties, use it in a dynamic textfield played on the stage, embed Basic Latin plus the extra characters I need for Polish, and populate it with some French, German and Polish words, they all display fine. If I then choose to export my font symbol, then the Polish characters disappear - the French and German characters display fine. This would appear to me to be broken. - I don't suppose anyone has managed to resolve this problem? Or could tell me how I'm misunderstanding the situation. - Macromedia, please sort out fonts in the next version of the Flash IDE, they are a nightmare at the moment. Please let us select which glyphs we want for a font per movie, rather than per text field (maybe having an override option per text field). (I have submitted this as a feature request). I can't think of many scenarios where you might want to stop characters appearing in field that couldn't just be achieved by some script. Or am I alone in this one?
