I have absolutely no ActionScript Experience, but I have a very specific question. I have found a font picker that uses actionscript and flash. Instead of it importing all of the fonts on the user system, how can I get it to import the fonts from a specific folder on the web server?

I have attached the Main.as file below as an archived file.

Again I need the coding to pull fonts from a specific folder on the web server instead of the current setup.

If you want the entire package instead of just the .as file, this is the download link for the entire package.

Appreciate the help!

It makes it easier for people to help you if you post the code directly (not in a .zip file)
