merging font data

* please run first sample #13, or replace Lithograph.mkf with Franklin Gothic Medium.mkf.

Font data stored in media/font, as seen in sample #13 can be reused in other swf, the merging process is quite simple, istantiate a textfield and then load from file from file. Mk generates editable/non-editable textboxes, in this sample we assign a default text value but it is not mandatory, it may be better to insert font as symbol with linkage to control with actionscript, you'll find a little reference in sample #17.
