What I'm trying accomplish is loading an embedded font with

cast member which seems to be working, but I can't seem to get director
to recognize the font after it is loaded from the database. Any Ideas?

Probably Director doesn't know it's a font, since it's being pasted in from a DB, not imported from the font list.


Rather than trying to paste the font into your Director movie, try just re-importing it directly. Or better still after a user has imported a font, perhaps into an external fonts cast, save it. Then you don't have to reimport every time and the font will be there when you need it.
