I had a brainstorm about this (or maybe cerebral failure -- you be the

judge). Ordinarily I'd say you'll need to change the font designation in

every symbol or non-symbol occurrence. But what if you made copies of the

desired new font in your system folder, and then renamed each of these

copies with the various names of the fonts you were previously using? Flash

just might seek out the old names and come up with the replacement font in

each case. Be sure to keep backups of the real fonts so you can restore

them :-).  Please let me know if this works.
