    Default embedded fonts and MIAW's

    I am using a embedded font that was made custom for this project. What I cant figure out is if I have separate MIAWs can I just embed the font on the main movie or do I have to embed and save the font in each of the separate director movies that are used as MIAWs? I guess if I do have to embed the font in each, then the MIAWs' file size will increase somewhat.

    Is there a way to embed in a stub movie, that all the MIAWs can refer to?

    Thank you
    regards
    Mrl

    make an external cast, link it to all your dirs, and place common elements
    in it.

    ps : when you'll test this solution, you may have to enable "read-only" flag
    for the common castlib file, otherwise sometimes director refuses to access
    it from 2 different movies... And remember to uncheck that flag before
    returning to authoring mode (if you need to change cast's content)

    You can have an external library named "fonts" and reference it in all of your movies.
