So unless it's really "hinting", DefineFont3 would be interesting only for swf2xml magic. I wouldn't know where to get hinting info from-- TTF supposedly contains a turing-complete hinting language, which is patent-encumbered. i doubt flash supports much like that (tho i might be mistaken). Personally, i'd be fine with the current (minimal) DefineFontInfo3/DefineFont3 support. It means those tags can be imported fine, and that should be what matters most. But then again, i'd personally be fine without any flash8 tags (it would decrease me having to resort to wine :)... if anyone requires swfmill to fully understand those tags, please at least come up with a usage scenario :) -dan -- http://0xDF.com/ http://iterative.org/ _______________________________________________ swfmill mailing list swfmill@osflash.org http://osflash.org/mailman/listinfo/swfmill_osflash.org
