Thanks for your help, folks.

I did some more testing, here is what I did/found:

Compiling from within the module:
==========================
1.) when font path and fontkit dependency are correct - no problem

2.) when I rename the font path (from "fonts" to "fontsXXX" to provoke
a path error), I get:
[ERROR] <project>/BaseTheme/src/main/flex/styles.css:[2343,-1] unable
to resolve 'fonts/verdanai.ttf' for transcoding
Seems logical because AFEFontManager cannot find the fonts.

3.) when I remove the flex-fontkit.jar dependency from the pom (to
provoke a classpath error), I get:
[ERROR] <project>/BaseTheme/src/main/flex/styles.css:[2343,-1]
exception during transcoding: No FontManager provided. Cannot build
font.
Seems logical because AFEFontManager is not in the classpath.

Compiling from the parent module:
==========================
[ERROR] <project>/BaseTheme/src/main/flex/styles.css:[2343,-1]
exception during transcoding: No FontManager provided. Cannot build
font.

Since this is the same error message as compiling from within the
module with a missing dependency, I am coming to the conclusion that
this is a classpath problem. Do you agree?
Can this be fixed, i.e. help Maven to find the classpath?


Thanks,
Peter
