I'm aware of the pdftk.exe utility that can indicate which fonts are used by a PDF, and wether they are embedded or not. Now the problem: given I had PDF files with embedded fonts -- how can I extract those fonts in a way that they are re-usable as regular font files? Are there (preferably free) tools which can do that? Also: can this b...
I recently upgraded a Flex 3 project to Flex 4 "MX Only" and prior to the upgrade, I had some rotated text which now does not render. I have embedded the font ("Verdana") within my CSS Stylesheet using the following declaration: /* CSS file */ @namespace mx "library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"; @font-face { fontFamily: Verdana; sr...
When I display an instance of System.Windows.Forms.FontDialog (C#), on Windows Vista / 7 printer device-fonts are unavailable (Roman CPI fonts for example). These fonts are however still available from MS Word. The same application displays the fonts correctly on a Windows XP machine. I have tried MethodInfo mi = typeof(Font...
What mime type should WOFF fonts be served as? I am serving truetype (ttf) fonts as font/truetype and opentype (otf) as font/opentype, but I cannot find the correct format for WOFF fonts. I have tried font/woff, font/webopen, and font/webopentype, but Chrome still complains: "Resource interpreted as font but transferred with MIME type...
So - I have this weird problem. I have a major project, no details needed except that it is split to many SWFs, and so - I would like to use a Shared Library to embed the fonts. Done - sl_fonts.swf loaded, fonts - checked and working, the rest of the SWFs are loaded AFTER (checked by a preloader). Now - again, I traced the result of th...
Just realized there are big differences in the AppleGothic font on different on iPod / iPhone 3G and iPhone 4 devices. Does anybody knows how is possible that the same embedded font renders so different? ...
Ok here is my challenge, I have some <h1> tags that I want to convert into a custom font and apply a gradient from left to right. Initially I was going for the idea of using cufon as this does both, but it turns out cufon only supports top to bottom gradients. My only other option as far as I am aware is sIFR which I believe may suppor...

Wow, my first post on Stack Overflow. Have I "arrived"? Okay, this is an oddball. I'm trying to determine whether there might be some programmatic way to introspect the classes within a linked SWC at runtime. To give a little more background (maybe there's a completely different way to go about doing this), I'm considering a general fr...
Hi, Is there a way to embed only a few letters from a font instead of embedding the whole thing? I only need say 7 capital letters from a font. Thank you. -Laxmidi ...
Hi, As far as I know that embedding font face is only possible with CSS3 (CSS2 but not CSS2.1), and not all browsers are ready for it yet, particularly IE (unless IE9?)...

I have a pixel font from www.fontsforflash.com. I have embedded it using flex then loaded the swf in flash CS4 to make it available. But its very blurry and I can find a way to turn off anti-aliasing in as3. Its the right size and placed with whole numbers. The reason I have embedded this method is because I don't want to load an entire...
I'm trying to paste text into a flex textarea. The text I'm pasting has newlines and tabs, but when I paste the text into the textarea, the tabs are stripped out. If I comment out the CSS line font-family: EmbArial; the tabs will be preserved. I tried using different font files, but it didn't help. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"...
Does anyone know how to use the Font Squirrel @font-face kit generator, or something similar, to output a variant of a font, i.e. the bold variant? I am using Gill Sans on my website and it is set to "font-weight: 900" or "font-weight: bold," which looks great on my machine because it has the font installed. But if I just embed the font...
