[swfmill] Embedded fonts looks dfferent for flash8 and flash9 and different from Flash CS application

[Michael Pliskin]

Hello Ralf,

RF> This problem is caused by the missing support for the new font features
RF> that were introduced in flash 8. I'm not sure if I have time to
RF> implement any of this in the near feature.
RF> Please send me the generated swf files. Are you able to create a flash 7
RF> version of the font resource file with the flash ide? This would help to
RF> improve the current font support without the flash 8 features.

Maybe you can point us to some docs/info on these extra new font
features? We can try adding support ourselves then...

Mike
