About sharing fonts

To use a font as a shared library item, you can create a font symbol in the Library panel, and then assign the following attributes to the font symbol:

• An identifier string
• A URL where the document containing the font symbol will be posted

In this way, you can link to the font and use it in a Flash application without the font being stored in the FLA file.
