kjel,

there's nothing i can see you doing wrong. FreeType does not like... usually 
means there's something wrong with the font file, sorry there's no more 
detailled error reporting there yet. Have you tried any other font? ms's plain 
arial should work fine usually, but it would be good to know.

Re: [swfmill] importing SWF compiled in OpenLaszlo

   Any ideas why import of OpenLaszlo swf does not render in 
   output.swf? 

we'd need more details, or a simple testcase. Note that just importing another 
swf does not place it on stage, it makes it available as an asset. generally it 
should not matter what you used to produce the swf to import.

Re: [swfmill] font rendering issue

   The font I'm having issues with is fff_corporate.ttf which is a fonts for 
flash pixel font. It's an 8pt pixel font. If there's anything glaringly obvious 
that I'm doing wrong please let me know. Otherwise I'll try emailing Dan in a 
couple days.

pixelfonts are still an issue with swfmill. the flash ide has some option where 
it fixes glyph borders on pixel boundaries for a specific size, swfmill doesnt 
do such a thing yet. i did some experiments with other pixelfonts, and faced 
similar problems. sadly, as you might know, i don't really have the time 
currently to care. i will at some point in the future, because i really want 
pixelfonts to work :). but until then, you're out of luck, sorry. 

if it's only horizontal blurring, typicall occurring only after a few 
characters in a line, the issue might be a rounding error for the font's 
advance value. you could decompile the flash-generated swf and look it up, and 
(IIRC) fix it in swfmill with a simple advance=xxx in the font tag.

good luck,
-dan
