The question, 'why, would you wish to have several process working on the same file?', sort of pops into my head.. ;o) > If started immediately after each other, only one process survives, > all others die with "Error: Couldn't create temporary font file" > logged.

If they had different temporary files to work on, then the problem would simply go away. > It seems to me this is kind of a race condition with faster version > 0.9.2, because if I add 1 second delay before starting subsequent > processes no errors occur.

So, since you yourself created the issue, and have in one way at least, resolved it, it begs the further question, what exactly is the issue you have? ;o) Regards, Chris. --------------- SWFTools-common is a self-managed list.
