  2. Create new MovieClip symbol, in this case \u201carabic_fonts\u201d and check the option \u201cExport for runtime sharing\u201d, in this case \u201carabic_fonts.swf\u201d\n
    \n\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  3. Edit \u201carabic_fonts\u201d MovieClip and create as many TextFields as you require, each with specific font to be shared\n

  8. Create new MovieClip symbol and give it the exact same name for the shared library symbol, in this case \u201carabic_fonts\u201d, then check the option \u201cImport for runtime sharing\u201d, in this case \u201carabic_fonts.swf\u201d\n
    \n\n<\/div>\n
