Thanks JL, it works now with pdf2swf version 9.0; change log show improved font quality (FlashType) was added in 9.1 so it maybe cause of misshaped glyphs. the converted swf exhibit the problem of unjoined character as in this snapshot: http://simplewebcode.com/unjoined.gif but I can live with it better than misshapenness!

I have similar issues with 091 with some non-arabic fonts where the glyphs show the same behavior as yours. Using pdf2swf 090 (while still using Flash 9 <T 9>) seems to handle it better, as was the result of your sample PDF. Good Luck JL From: Soroush Hassani Subject: [Swftools-common] misshaped glyphs when converting to version 9 swf Date: Tue, 20 Jul 2010 16:41:33 -0700 (PDT) ________________________________ Hi all, I am using pdf2swf to convert some Arabic pdf files to swf and use them in a flipbook product that require swf files to be at least flash 9. when I convert this pdf http://simplewebcode.com/sample.pdf to version 8 and above http://simplewebcode.com/8_and_above_misshaped.swf I get the bold glyphs misshaped and artifacts as in this snapshot http://simplewebcode.com/misshaped.jpg ; some of the problematic characters are marked with red circles. Converting to flash 7 is not an option, nevertheless I noticed that it does not show those artifacts http://simplewebcode.com/7_unjoined.swf but instead show some characters unjoined as they should be in Arabic, it is obvious with bold and big size fonts and when zooming as in this snapshot http://simplewebcode.com/unjoined.gif I am using flash 10 to view the swf files. Any idea about the problem and solution? Thanks in advance
