I have a font symbol in my library:

\_myriad28 (linkage property class \_Myriad28)

I use this in a class in the standard way:

```php

private var _myriad28:_Myriad28;
...
_myriad28 = new _Myriad28();
...
myTextFormat.font = _myriad28.fontName;
...

```

etc.

It works for a little while and then, without changing anything about the symbol or the linkage or ANYTHING, Flash suddenly throws these errors:

```
1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: _Myriad28.
1180: Call to a possibly undefined method _Myriad28

```

Any idea what’s going on? I cannot identify ANYTHING I’m doing wrong, and again, it appears that Flash likes it one minute and the next minute it doesn’t.
