How do you copy a font from one computer program to another?
I'm working on a Flash 5 program for people learning Korean (I'm trying the learning-by-doing approach.).
Every time I try to run the program, I get a message saying that I am overusing Times New Roman.
I understand that I can alleviate this problem by copying Times New Roman from my Microsoft Word program, giving it a new name, and posting it on the font directory in Flash 5.
But how do I do that?
Is there a directory of computer experts in Korea?
If I can find a computer expert who is patient enough to speak slowly and write down all the words I don't know, that should help.
Sorry, Homer, but this is the only place I can turn to.
I've posted on computer message boards, I've written to authors of Flash 5 manuals, and I've asked at the local computer store. So this is the only thing I know to do. |

Have you tried downloading fonts from the web - there are plenty of free fonts you can get , although don't know if times new roman would be free or if this suggestion will work for you!! |

Excuse my ignorance, but how can one "overuse" a font? I don't get it. (No, I'm not being a jerk: This is a serious question.) |

Mr. Literal, I don't know either.
Apparently, each font has a quota in a Flash 5 file. |
