I am currently working on a project combining html and flash. Every submenu in my menusystem (html) will load its own SWF. If i embed a font to one of the SWFs i would be happy if i didnt have to embed it to all the other swfs since this would generate alot of downloadingtime for the viewer.
**Is there a way to cache an embedded font so that i can use it in seperate swfs…or does anyone have any other suggestions of how to do this?**

You can use shared fonts:
